Yes they are a sight!!! I had one come up to me in a deer stand while hunting down in virginia last year. That was the first time I ever had one that close, my knees were knocking I'll tell ya

There was a report of one spotted along Nine Mile Creek in Marcellus last summer. Likely a juvenille looking for a home turf. They get around.

One got hit by a car in Wampsville, and then ran down the Erie Canal path and crossed the canal into a cedar swamp last year.  It must not have been hit very badly, they looked for it the next day and never found it.

more than likely that bear just wanted some of those perch filets that Dave was munching on while he was sitting on the porch, I mean who in their right mind wouldn't want to help Dave eat something as good perch filets. HA HA HA
