Black Bear
Just at sunset, Indy and I walked out for a constitutional. We hadn't gotten far before Indy was barking furiously. She was so worked up she practically fell over. I looked in the direction she was barking. There was a bear. It checked us out for a moment and then turned to flee back towards the woods. Indy and I continued on. A pack of coyotes starting up a songfest. No need to be concerned. Together, the dog and I are Masters of our Domain. When we got back home, I sat at my computer. I can see the meadow from my desk. Watched the doe and fawn wake up, graze, and head toward the pond. Next time I looked up there was the bear looking at the house. I was ticked. Royally ticked. How dare that bear come back so soon after we scared him off! I ran out on the deck and started yelling in German. The bear took off across the meadow toward the woods again. I didn't stop yelling until I'd gone through my entire repertoire of German epithets. Why German? I think anything said in German carries more gravitas (and I don't know Klingon.)
