Well, it's got nuthin to do with ceramics, but a big black bear just helped himself to the suet cakes hanging from my car port roof. He made a crushed wire mess of my pricey squirrel proof double cake suet hanger. I've been hanging suet for 8 years w/o being visited by a big fuzzy thief. Guess I won't be putting that out anymore. Did I mention he was big? (And beautiful-a treat to see, truth be told).

That is great. Did you get a picture of him or her? Are there many bear in your area or do they just wander in because of disappearing habitat.?
We put the feeders on shepherd hooks so only the youngest and lightest squirrel can climb up to the feeders; they also cannot steal the whole suet cake. But the deer empty the feeders by tipping them up and letting seed fall into their mouths....it really is funny to see.

Oh my! No more suet! Wow!

The bears have been steadily losing ground to human rural development & low water tables, but it is fairly rare for them to come down from the ridge into our little mobile home park. I hate not being able to put out the suet, but on his (or her) second foray it came up on my porch and took out the bird feeder hanging off the beam. I hope I don't have to stop feeding the birds!
