This guy sauntered out of the woods and up to within 15 feet of the porch before taking a swim across the pond. Unfortunately, the sun was at an angle that yielded a better reflection of the videographer than video of the bear. Still shots had to do. I estimate it at 350–400 lb. Again, we were having lunch. Tip: Chicken sandwiches make great bear bait. So does a cool pond on a hot day.
