Hi Lydia and all,
If that's a washing line they must make them pretty strong in that part of the world. Pretty clever bear too. If he/she had a chum to stand with a collection tin they would make enough to retire from tightrope hanging and be able to go to the shops like everyone else. Lovely pics.

No No Pie, it's goes somthing like this on the posters from memory..|8.| Stand tall, wave your hands in the air and shout at the top of your voice, if it charges, lay down tuck your head in your arms and play dead, or was that for a Mountain Lion? Oh and if walking out with your dog put a bell on it's collar so the animals have a chance to move out of your way. Somehow it feels better to know the only thing that's going to chase you in Ireland is a Cow, or the Farmer!!

Difficult to run or wave your arms (in case you have not been spotted so the bear, mountain lion, insert predator of your choice here (X) ), when you are in a dead faint!
I'll play it safe and battle the Hummingbirds when they come to visit. That's about all the excitement I can match. Oh! Maybe Bill could call it at ringside? He's got the experience already!

Probably like a Leprechaun in that the feeder should be a bottle of the best single malt.......8-P 8-P, even I'll have a go at that one..
Bogle is an old Scots Name for the Daoinhe Maithe (the good people) or fairies, they would also be known by Daoine Sidhe (Fairy people or Fiary folk). Some say they are of the Tuatha De Danann, a group of mythological Celtic people (Scots and Irish)...Not sure if they climbed ropes to get at feeders though LOL!

It is a small world! The term for Mom or Mamma is universally *very* similar.
Even smaller world ~~~> This mornings local news report on the television said there was a mountain lion sighting about 50 miles south east of, uh, ~gulp~

Grab your camera and away your go.. Just remember they are very good at coming back around onto your trail, when you think you are still stalking them..:eek!:
Having said that there's only ~53 recorded attacks on humans in the last 100 years. I think the poor Cougar has more to fear from Man then we do from him..

I've just caught up with this Lydia, and whatever I was expecting from the title, it certainly wasn't this chap!! Wow! |8.| Just like a squirrel's antics too.
I like the other fellas as well, especially the one lounging around in the front garden. Oh this is great stuff - I love it - from a distance of course!
