They were after birdseed. Sam had replenished the feeder just before dinner, which is unusual for him. Usually he does it in the morning. I was in bed and heard a racket under the window. The mama bear had knocked over the bird feeder, then left the three cubs to polish off the sunflower seeds. They were very noisy, moaning, snuffling, and licking, while mom hovered around protectively. Sam just happened to have a bright spotlight at hand inside which explains the sudden lighting in the video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I wonder where they\u2019ve gone from here. It\u2019s still too warm to hibernate, so they\u2019ve got lots of roaming to do still. But Hancock Point is an island really. They\u2019d have to wade or swim to get here. So many questions. What a sight! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Video on YouTube: Visitors last night I\u2019m not sure how to post a video effectively, but am so excited to report four &#8211; yes, four! &#8211; bears in the yard last night!
