Baker

This big guy was a surprise yesterday and caused some confusion. He showed up and is not one of the regulars. Today I've searched through all my archives to see if I'd photographed him at any point...perhaps when he was a cub. No luck. He's not there. We've had a total of 12 bears this season, he is number thirteen so I've named him Baker. (As in a Baker's Dozen)

He had dirt all over his nose when he arrived so he's been busy preparing a den and he was really well behaved when he was with us. He was chased away from the field by the girls a few times so he moved off to a more secluded spot and sat and watched me and rested on the rocks.
