Okay, so there really isn't a new sign...but one could argue putting one up at Chris Martin's house at the lower end of Apple Creek Road:
BEAR CROSSING
For the second time in just a few weeks, an adult black bear has found some things in that area pallatable, like a suet feeder Chris had 7 feet off the ground just this morning. This from Chris (click on pics to enlarge):

Dear Apple Creek,
Not my bear #1 is back. After pawing down a 7 foot high hanging pad of suet he ( he for convenience, might call him shorty) strolled casually off behind the left side of the garage to eat. Sorry I missed the shot of him standing to reach the suet. Has anyone else sited this critter. Would like to figure out his route. I'm beginning to suspect he's coming down from the Batchelor's via the
This is a very adult bear not carved of wood and very sneaky. I suspect Suet is just the thing bears are looking for this time of year. A wad of fat! So heads up you guys and the Conner bees too. It's time to hide the beer, wine, and cheese. Don't want this bear addicted to the stuff we eat. It'll kill ya.
By the way, the Conner bees eat at my place too via the hummingbird feeders. Is this a good or bad thing for bees? They can put away a lot of juice in a day.
Just another fantastic day in the the Apple Creek Hood.
Our best to all,
Chris and Helen
