No Bed Time Stories for Bears

Living here on Vancouver’s North Shore means living with black bears. With the mild weather, and an abundant supply of easy-pickings (read garbage) some of the local black bears are sticking around for the winter instead of heading up into the snow for a sleep.

Personally, if I had the option of sleeping for a few months or spending my days working, I know which way I’d go.

Despite the great work of the North Shore Bear Network and the Get Bear Smart folks, too many people continue to leave bear-tempting-goodies out, things like garbage and bird feed.

A Vancouver Screen Saver for Christmas

Here’s a screen saver full of pics from around Vancouver taken over the last couple of weeks. It’s great if you’ve got a big monitor or two.
Native size is 1920 x 1277 but will resize to fit your monitor.

Unzip the file and run setup. It will self install and comes with some controls you can tweak if you’re so inclined.

Sorry, it’s Windows only :-(

Download the .zip file here.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
