A *BIG* Guest Selfie

 When we said big, we really meant that! Petcretary is working this weekend, and she's also been busy clearing away a lot of the mess in our yard...mainly small limbs and a lot of the zillions of branches from the downed treetops. She has a couple of small chainsaws that help with that job...and because they are battery operated it limits the time she spends out there, which is a good thing, otherwise she would exhaust herself, Tee-hee! There is an insurance adjuster who will come and appraise all the damage to the yard and esp the fence, so we can get the big logs out of there, and get the fence fixed so that our yard can be back to normal...

Having said that she has not made any new pics of us...so we are allowing her to show some pics of our big guest for today's selfie hop.

So here are those promised pics...petcretary helped *him* take these selfies last year when she  was out west in Vancouver, BC, visiting family. (She only had her phone camera, so she was surprised how well these pics actually turned out!)

He even smiled!! We think this is Coola; but we are not 100% sure, and of course he wouldn't tell us, LOL!

If you can enlarge this you can read the story of these two Grizzly Bears.


Grizzly bear brothers from other Mothers...Grinder and Coola

A grizzly Bear 'Ussie'! ( They were actually swimming in that pond, the smaller bear is half submerged; it was a hot day!)

We are joining up with all the other Sunday Selfies at The Cat On My Head. Thanks Kitties Blue, we love this blog hop!

    Well that was interesting! G and C certainly seem to like the attention... and I wish Petcretary all the best for the yard clearing. Been there, done that, know the nuisance! Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx

  4. What a mess of trees for Petcretary to work on and still go to work, mol. We are glad the bears were saved as cubs, but sad they could not live a wild life with their moms. We have the beautiful cold sky this morn with the Canada smoke. We are sad they have this going, it must be very scary.

  6. Those two bears are HUGE! At first I thought Petcretary saw the bear in the wild so I was relieved to see they were in a zoo.

  11. Wow, when you said big, you really meant BIG!! Glad the bears from different mothers were saved. Looks like they both have gotchas days this month. How cool is that. Hope your Pregretary doesn't work too hard this weekend. Have a positive week with the insurance adjuster.

  17. Hi hi hi! Ojo here! I have never met a Grizzly Bear! (My person says this is a good thing.) However I have met lots of Black Bears. I like to BARK at them! (My person doesn't like this.) Mostly they ignore me. How dare they?
