Signs of Spring

Everyone looks for signs of spring..the robins, the tulips…the daffodils. But our sign of spring is that the black bears come out of hibernation and begin to wander around the neighborhoods in search of free bird seed at the feeders.
   Last week we had a mystery. A portion of our fence was knocked completely down in one spot. We were not sure of how it happened until yesterday when it was knocked down in the exact same spot. Sadie was sniffing around aware that the bear had visited inside our fence. One of the reasons we put up the fence was to give Sadie a safe place to run around. But another reason is that the bear had frequently been in our yard, walking around on our courtyard, and even once swimming in our little pond. Once the fence was up I felt a little safer. Now I’m worried that he is going to make visiting a habit. Sadie spent all morning sitting by the fence waiting and guarding.
