it seems early for the bears to be out of hibernation
but these certainly woke up and took a walk

I am thinking two different bears
They might have gone back to the den....
what do you think
black bear or grizzly?

That is a BIG bear! I really could not tell if it is a black bear or grizzly. I love the first photo.
ReplyDeleteIt is a grizzly Penny.
Deletewhat a beautiful picture! I love bears!!
ReplyDeletetu as mis des semelles ours? :))))
ReplyDeletecute.... nope
Deleteas on instagram, i wish iwas there but you take care for the hungry bear
ReplyDeletelove
I will take care, thank you!
DeleteMaybe both! Amazing tracks.
ReplyDeleteGolly! What big paws you've got, Mr Bear! Very impressive!
ReplyDeleteI think so too, impressive tracks.
DeleteI just LoVe seeing this. Purely selfish (or selfful?). I sipped a wee cup of Dragonwell tea before coming home from the studio today and in the leaves I saw a bear, looking over her shoulder at a (flying) fish. So these tracks, by black or grizzly, are beautiful and resonate deeply for me. Thanks so much sharing! <3
ReplyDeleteI love that this gets to be part of your message Rose.
DeleteWhat a big dear!!The were hungry??? Take care for the hungry bear,though they are innocent.
ReplyDeleteThe first photo is amazing. Stay warm,Tammie.
Maybe hungry, maybe needed a stretch. So glad you enjoyed the photo Tomoko.
Deletethe tracks look amazing. and good that they leave marks to show they are around.. take care.
ReplyDeleteYes, that is a super fun thing about snow. They are covered up now with a second snow storm since then.
DeleteI think I've never seen bear tracks like that!
ReplyDeletesuper fun to see a line of them. usually just one here or there in the mud.
DeleteIs curious see those footprints.
ReplyDeleteTomás.
Dear Tammie - I haven’t seen bear footmarks on the snow before. These are so big. Aren’t bears extremely hungry right after hibernation? Take care and stay warm.
ReplyDeleteYoko
yes, usually during snow time they are hibernating. Yes, usually hungry.
DeleteI haven't clue, but loved seeing them. It doesn't surprise me that they are out. Everything seems to be happening early this year. Take care!!
ReplyDeleteGrizzly. It has been a cold week and we are on our second snow storm since then.
DeleteWow, that does seem early. Hopefully they went back to bed.
ReplyDeleteI wish I knew what they did. I am curious.
DeleteOoh, how exciting! And a little scary.
ReplyDeleteYes, but really no need to be scared unless something is happening.
DeleteBeautiful if not a bit worrisome too. Another early riser this year.
ReplyDeleteI am curious about it all.
DeleteI think I would be scared if I saw such traces. Regards.
ReplyDeleteyes, i understand, but traces are not dangerous.
DeleteWow, how exciting to have wildlife like that. I trust you kept an eye out for them coming back?!!
ReplyDeletekeeping an eye out is a daily occurrence once I know they are around. Snow makes it easy to see their tracks.
DeleteThat is surprising! They will have a hard time of it for awhile now.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering what you would think. We are in our second snowstorm since then.
DeleteI am thinking Don't Follow! Great images.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteI don't know which bear but be careful out there!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jeanie, I will be careful.
DeleteI hope for polar! They migrated your way in search of their distant cousins, 'cause their homes have disappeared, and they seek asylum.
ReplyDeleteYour photos sparked excitement and wonder, and my imagination flared. Thank you. :)
Wow, that is shocking! I have a hard time imagining two separate bears waking up at this time of year - so maybe they are a mama and a yearling... I sure do hope that they're okay. My understanding is that getting up and moving around at this time of year would probably mean that something bad happened at the den like a predator visit or water filling the den...
ReplyDeleteThanks for this amazing puzzle! Please let us know if you learn any more about this mystery.
Bears! I certainly hope they find some food if they have come out of hibernation so early.
