Berry Picking in Manitoba

imageDo do you see a Bears Butt? Picking Saskatoons  with many bear prints in the mud. You could see  where they sat and pulled berries off bushes and where they stood high and pulled them off.. With NO WILD BERRIESthis U-pick makes only restaurant in area for bears.

May Motion camera photos show how thin the whitetail were after winter. Looks like the one doe is heayy in calf. Every year we have a doe fawn out back , we are seeing big and small foot prints in the garden near the peas.. I have no problem sharing as long as they dont eat them all

Manitoba Robin nest

imageThis is the second hatch of Robins in the same nest.  I guess I’ll be watching the strawberry patch because I am not wanting to share too many berries.  The hunters will be complaining there is no Strawberry Shortcake for desert!

More Bears at Big Grass

imageimageimageLast weekwe had bear scat, this week we have foot prints down the lane and across the garden to the Raspberries which I hav started to pick. I share with the birds but not sure if I will share with Mr Bear. We may hav to bring out the 410 to tell him to stay away! No wild berries this year the 2 year olds are hungry.

Spring Bear Family
