At the North American Bear Center, Low Impact Excavator chief John Wavrin and his workers are using a lot of heavy equipment to make big progress on the fencing.

(Scott made him do it!) In this 4½-minute video Scott Edgett and Spencer Peter tell about the progress, the new pens, new dens, and new look. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68bqQ_xvUac
At the WRI new bears are showing up, including a mystery mother and her male yearling that are still a tight pair. The team is working on clues to ID them.
Evening grosbeak male
These two males, an evening grosbeak and indigo bunting, tied as the birds of color the last couple days.
As more bears show up we wait anxiously for certain favorites while trying to ID ones that are a little difficult.
Thank you for all you do,
