This Visitor

So, dad had a visitor this afternoon.  An unexpected visitor of the four legged furry kind.  Sherry said they were all sitting at the table when she looked outside and saw a bear in the front yard.  She said to dad, "you have a visitor out front, a bear!"  he didn't believe her so she repeated it.  "there is a bear in the front yard."  so he looked out and sure enough a bear was out there looking for something to eat I am sure.  He had bent the sheppards hook that had thisle seed hanging from it.  Sherry went out on the deck and talked to him and he was not the least bit afraid of her.  He even attempted to come up the deck steps so we are wondering if he will be on the deck tonight.  She also said he attempted to go in the gargage and she shot over him three times before he decided to leave.  Just going over the the neighbors to the east.  He came back once and was checking out the firepit.  She did call the sheriff to find out what to do if he refuses to go away and they said we would have to call the DNR to come in to trap and relocate him to a new area.  I hope I get to see him before that happens.
