If I pick you up and look at you...and you lick your lips? Hungry.
If I hold you and you squirm a lot to get down? Need to go to the bathroom.
Jump on my leg? Let's play Dad.
Keep following me around? Let's play Dad.
Try to get into my water glass when I'm drinking...thirsty.
There's 5 for you, Andy.

The others are very subtle and you would have to own ferrets to learn them.

Yes they're cute but they are bloody well destructive. I had one yearling visit
and he chewed big chunks out of my new lawn mower seat, dragged my extension
cord across the yard and checked out my burn barrel. He returned another
week and bit another chunk of mower seat and dragged my garden hose across
the yard. Then he brought his two brothers back the next week and I was
really ****ed so I yelled and them real loud and they formed a line and
acting like sullen teen-agers marched into the woods and I haven't seen them
since. I now have my old army rifle ready for them should they re-visit.

I am sooooo envious. OTOH, I'd worry that if a bear came here, he
just be shot.

There was a black bear that came through Mass. a couple of times.
He was deported both times. I think the second time he was
probably trying to find his family/his habitat. That's just plain
sad.

By "came through Mass" - I hope you mean the one in Boston/Cape Cod.
Mass has a few thousand black bears in residence.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/47977117...boston-suburb/
"The Massachusetts bear population was last estimated at 3,000 in
2005, with most bears in northwest and western parts of the state,
including the Berkshires region."

Bears in populated areas can never end well- either for the bear, or
for the humans, or both. I think any bear in a city/suburb should
be sent to the food pantry.

I wonder why this particular bear was deported then.

Wildlife is being crowded out of its habitats. I tend to be
pro-critter.

Yes, and that wildlife is evidently being crowded into people's
neighborhoods. I was talking to my buddy in CA, jes today, and he was
telling me he sees wild turkeys, now, when he walks his dog around the
block. This in a long established small city neighborhood that was
built in the late 50s. Classic American suburbia, all concrete and
asphalt. There are wild turkeys about 25 miles out of town, it being
on the edge of rural, but neither he nor I have ever seen wild turkeys
walking down the sidewalk in town. 8|

We saw wild turkeys on Staten Island. Right in the middle of a busy street.

We see them here too. I love critters and just wish I could
direct them to my yard. (I don't use any chemicals.)
