Bio Blitz


Had a great time at the KFN annual Bio Blitz, held near Morton. My personal highlight was finding a black bear, cute little duffer, must have been a yearling. Not small enough to worry about Mama, not big enough to worry about it. I just had the great fortune to be at the right place at the right time to see it run out onto the road ahead of us. Thank goodness I had a young biologist with me as a witness, the bear ran up into the woods and looked back at us through some trees, so this is as good a shot as I could get. As he put it, we got the classic Sasquatch pictures, but at least you can see the outline. It's ABOUT TIME I get to see a bear in this end of the province!
