New Jersey bears have it easy. There is strong resistance to a hunting season in the Garden State, even with an expanding bruin population. There are lots of food sources in every suburban backyard - birdfeeders most especially. Then again, they have to contend with ferocious adversaries, like domestic cats.

We once had a grey tiger who one summer day was inspecting the garden with me. A hummingbird buzzed by and the cat hopped up on his hind legs and clapped his front paws together. His eyes crossed as he stared at the iridescent bird trapped by his paws. I yelled and the bird got away undamaged. But I think of all of us the cat was the one most surprised that he actually caught the bird.
Lovely picture of a ferocious feline.
