we have seen many deer. Has anyone else seen a bear in the yard?

Allan that sure looks like a bear to me. I'll put video of the walkby here very shortly.

Thanks for the alert on this one Alan - I was recording, but likely would have missed the brief visit. Certainly the first time that I know of we've seen a bear on the cams, but perhaps they go through at night too.
07-09-15 Bear appears in lower left corner of frame, stops at the water puddle for a quick drink, then goes down by the water tank and into the swamp.

Nicely done, Allan. First I've heard of a bear in Chama.
I think that clip needs to be on the Friends YouTube Channel.

Glad the camera cannot follow him into the woods . . . .

OK then, does a bear "walk" in the swamp?

I'm surprised Mr. Whacky hasn't been on the stake-out for this culprit. We havn't heard much from Mr. Hogan in some time, I hope everything is fine with him, I miss his postings.

Thanks for posting this! This is a neat event for sure! If this bear returns, we might have to give him a nickname....."Chama Bear."
