They were too far away to photograph. Some other members of my family saw a her too and one of them they swear is an albino.

I wonder whether the rings around their eyes are indeed mange. K once had mange, and my vet explained that a young and strong animal with a good immune system usually bounces back from mange. The research studies about hibernating bears say that the bears who get mange usually recover.<br /><br />I do want to explore the denKBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16885661679762446456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4905010459077232225.post-10431730870790191592010-04-17T19:22:32.523-06:002010-04-17T19:22:32.523-06:00That photo of the bluebird almost looks like a pai...That photo of the bluebird almost looks like a painting - such contrast of the blue against the woods - just beautiful!!!
