Quill on the Rise, Battle of the Cams - UPDATE November 14, 2016
The picture is of Quill getting ready to leave for the night at 2:08 AM, weighing 64 1/4 pounds with 3 1/4 pounds of fresh stomach contents plus whatever was still there from his previous visit.
QuillWe're looking to get a weight on him when he arrives for his first visit of the night to get a more accurate weight to compare with his 32 pounds less than a month ago. He didn't walk past his Quill House last night. Does he just do that when he needs a drink?
NABC cam installAt the Bear Center, the "Battle of the Cams" is about to begin. Scott Edgett, John Leonard, and Jim Robbins installed a Den Cam in Holly and Lucky's bunker. Holly is notorious for undoing installations, beginning back in 2014-2015. The running score from last year was Holly 5, Scott 2. Scott is coming back with a vengeance. But he is up against Holly. If she can't dislodge the camera, she still has a
NABC Holly Lucky camlong tongue to smear it. Today she was using some pretty bad bear language to say she didn't want the camera watching her and Lucky all the time. We'll see what happens. Time will tell. Scott and team still need to work on the software and get the cam on line so stay tuned.
Thank you for all you do.
