Definitely Not a Bear!

I could almost hear Mr. Chips exclaim, 'I'm not a bear, mamma!  I am definitely not a bear!"  As I've said, I worry about putting up bird feeders at this time of year not knowing if the bears have gone to den.  Mr. Chips, however, is allowed to raid the feeder when I am slow on filling the seed bowls.  The chipmunks will be settling in for their long winter naps soon too so extra seeds are important.  Double helpings from now on!
