bear, prescott az, wildlife

Not a new bar nor restaurant, but the real animal. There have been bear sightings in Prescott AZ since Sunday. It was first seen around Rt 89 and Rosser St, game and fish tried to tranquillize it but failed. It was seen at the Frontier Village shopping center and near the Prescott Lakes subdivision.

I have not seen the bear 😦 The only wildlife drama here was a herd of 13 javelina knocked over our trash and rooted through it on Sunday night creating quite a mess. They got our neighbor to the west also.

At Lynx Lake we saw this water loving dog enjoying himself. I thought he was a black lab but he’s a pit bull and boxer mix. Here are some photos of him at play in the water.

A pair of schnauzers riding in a kayak with their person on Lynx Lake in Prescott. They are wearing life preservers with a handle on top – good thing as one of them jumped into the lake.

goose, lynx lake

We were at the south side of Lynx Lake this morning. Here’s George the Goose, a local resident. I was warned that he was aggressive, that turned out to be true.

George lowered his head and charged. This was taken just before he bit me on the shin.

Looking at this image, it’s easy to believe that birds descended from dinosaurs – here’s the t-rex attitude.
