"This Brittany is my most cherished possession — the darndest bird-finder I have ever seen, a tough and wiry little dog with a choke-bored nose and the ability to read birds’ minds." -Jack O'Connor
Apparently a friend of mine back east knows who took the pictures. It is supposed to be a deer bait, buddy put out his apples and carrots and than looked up and noticed the bear sitting there!
At least there was no one sitting in the stand. I knew one archery hunter who had to fend off a little black, that wanted to join him, because a big boar had put the run on him, by stabbing at him with an arrow.
