Funny. 

I was waiting to see an arrow drop into his back the whole time.  I may have yelled at him before he got halfway up that ladder.

He's a polite bear too!  ;)

WOW !!! Jim that looks bad. Hope I never have to deal with the kind of devastation that a hungry bear leaves behind. They have been spotted on the mountain just above me but not in my location YET. It's probably a matter of when because of the bee bait, huh ?

 Bears can smell bee hives for about 10 to 12 miles

I had one of my hives at my newest bee yard knocked over by a Jackass recently, no really, one that herds cattle. Lost the hive though.  :'(

:shock: Now that's one you don't hear every day. What are the odds ?

I guess the odds were a lot better than I had figured!  :-P

I see the Jackass just about every time I've visited this property. He's usually herding a head of cattle. He's quite a striking animal with a blueish grey coat.

He's obviously very curious in his nature.

He must have gotten out of the main yard he was in (about 15 acres).

I'm guessing it was him cause my Dad's friend doesn't have horses on this property that I know of, just a head of cattle and the Jackass.

His droppings were scattered on the ground several feet apart, some right next to the hive rack.

Bees must have scared the s--- outta him!  :lau:
