Young Black Bear
Townsend, TN - Great Smoky Mountains

A small black bear came into my yard looking for food, this has never happened before. I was in the backyard feeding the squirrels, chipmunks and birds and saw this little bear swimming across the river towards me. While he was in the river, I took off running and went inside. I grabbed my camera and went out on the balcony to observe him and take photos and videos. It was so thrilling to watch him and he hung out for a little while and climbed a tree to get a closer look at us. This photo story also contains 5 videos, enjoy!​​​​​​​
