On our jaunt in the woods yesterday we came upon an area with rocks (some large) that were standing on edge like Gravestones. Upon closer inspection this particular rock had telltale Bear tracks leading up to it. the rock was pretty good size!
Bears flip rocks looking for insects. Often many rocks in an area are flipped over on top of growing vegetation or next to a bare area or diggings in the ground. we also found depressions in the ground under trees where a Bear or two had made a bed for the night, which also had scat piles all around it.
Last year we encountered a Bear on one of our walks. We simply turned are walked the other way. Gotta love nature....

Took our late afternoon stroll through the woods. There is a place on a rocky hillside facing the setting Sun which is like a nursery for Barrel Cacti. There are Cacti all over the place! This one is obviously a happy camper. It's like a family with Mom-and-Pop cactus with kids and all the grandkids blooming to beat the band... LOL
