Today I was making lunch and the pepper I was going to use was past the "I'll eat it" stage. Rather than throw it out I thought I'd break it up for the raccoon, foxes or opossums that show up nightly on my woods cam. If you look in the far background of the clip you can just make him out. I never saw him till I went to delete the clip. Best seen in full screen.
You can also see the tree where I added the IR illuminators. I am hoping to pull the cat6 cable out there this weekend for the two cameras that are going there. Too bad they weren't up today.

Jeeze i hope you have bear spray, i wouldn't go out there with out it after seeing that bear.
LOL - just a baby :)
I took a solo motorcycle ride to Alaska about 10 years ago. On the way back, in the Yukon Territory, it was around 3:30 in the am and I was on the road home (light very early up that far north). Just outside the town I had stayed in, in ~35 deg temps and heavy fog, I came upon 2 grizzlies on the side of the road. No choice had to go by them about 30' away. Now those are big bears :)

They look cute, but you know they're notorious when they spot your food. Good thing the bear went away. :)
 
Great video, thanks. Congrats on capturing your first bear, on video.
That video would have been a classic if the bear had chased you off. :lol:
