It came from the bear deposit.

What on earth have I found?
It all made sense when I found this bear skat.
The night before Buddy was barking fiercely in the middle of the night.
George took a flashlight and was taken by Bud to the apple tree.
No glowing eyes shone back at George but he did hear a
gruff sound each time he neared the tree.
In the morning we found a broken branch and large scratch marks
on the trunk. We thought maybe a raccoon but as it turned out the
bear must have scaled another tree and watched George's confusion
with the flashlight as we found claw marks on the second tree.

A heron came to the pond today.

He hid under the willow tree when Morgan and Pa got in the boat.

He didn't fly away but just walked over land to the other pond....

...where he continued to fish.

Buddy went for a quick swim.

Pa and Morgan went under the Hidy Tree. Can you see them?

I call and call their names but don't know where they are.

Pa rows out from behind the tree and Morgan is so excited she stands up.
