He was not a large bear, a two year old likely. He was in a hurry, his hind feet over-stepped his front. A trail again, anemone blooming as soon as they reach the surface, no sign of the leaf as yet, just a flower on the ground. Yellow avalanche lilies and buttercups now and white lilies beyond. Birds of a feather flock together.
Deer seem quite abundant.
The trail intersects the trail of a large deer, a buck no doubt. Farther on another deer trail crosses the snow patches. No question here, there are two deer and one is a fawn so the other is the mother. Back a way there were the tracks of a coyote. The fawn would be welcome but the doe has sharp hoofs and knows how to use them.
