Black Bear feasting on tasty green leaves of Spring
This large black bear grabbed up a twig with many leaves on it and he began chewing and so enjoying his greens for the morning meal. Many berries , acorns ,wild cherries and walnuts were lacking last year so even after hibernation this bear was still eating more leaves.
