Black bear seen feasting on bird feeder on deck of Massachusetts home
ATHOL, Mass. — Only a pane of glass separated a hungry black bear from the inside of a Massachusetts home as it feasted on seeds in a hanging bird feeder. Hairpin Plant Stand
A close-up video shared by Jennifer Winship, of Athol, showed the bear chowing down on the back deck of her home.
In the video, the bear is seen standing on its hind legs and leaning against a glass set of windows as it tilted the birdfeeder and dumped seeds into its mouth.
At one point during its meal, the bear stopped chewing and looked directly at Winship’s camera before returning to eating.
