Bear Sign ......

Its been a wonderful few days hiking the Quabbin Watershed. Warm days earlier this week made for some very enjoyable days afield.
Bear sign has been easy to find. I have located tracks of three different bears.
While hiking a NE Gate a bear stepped in my boot print ( lower left hand corner) only a short period of time after making it. Rather an interesting track showing the overlay of the front foot in the lower right hand side of the photo.
I had found this track earlier in the area. Sure would like to get a photograph of this bear.
This is a first for me at Quabbin. Seeing a deer swimming from one of the islands.
