Saw this at lunch yesterday at the country club I was at. A momma bear sleeping in a pine tree. What you can't see is the cub under her and the other one about 6 feet away.

That a black bear or a grizzly, hard to see with the obstructed view. I always go by the ears and the hump or lack thereof on the neck.

I've had a few chances to see bears in the wild, all but once from a comfortable distance. Awesome to see in person.

And he's a Maine Coon; a real handful.

Wow. I've always wanted a Maine Coon; they're so beautiful. My family always referred to cats that size as "cogs:" cats big enough to be dogs.

[Amasov]

And very VERY chatty. But they are so laid-back and chill. They're the best.

Like auntiehill, I've also always wanted a Maine Coon. They're so big, beautiful, and have wonderful personalities.

Wow! Great!

A couple pet pics:

Lily is nearing 15 years old, and her walks have needed to be shorter because her hips are not strong, but she does love being in the sun.



Alvin just lounging.

^Cat on a bun.

[Ruaidhri]

It's a hot cat?

[Mr. Laser Beam]

@Ruaidhri: About Lily - what number is she?

[Ruaidhri]

There were times when she was younger that I was certain I had all 101.

Hubby and I went for a nice long walk today. Here is some of what we saw:



Red baby dragonfly:



Blue baby dragonfly:



(the adults didn't stay still long enough to photograph!)

and finally:



What a great day!

She's a black bear and we were probably closer than we should have been, especially with cubs in the tree with her.
