I was walking home at dusk yesterday when up ahead I saw three bears come out of the woods and start walking towards me. A Mom and two cubs. The wind was blowing in my direction. I had just started to eat an apple I picked off a tree along side the road. The only reason I saw them was because they were silhouetted against the sky, being at the top of a rise in the road and me below it.
I threw the apple I had in my hand off into the woods, then gave a little shout out. Mom looked up, saw me and all three high tailed it back into the woods. I was about 1/4 mile from my house.
