After a another morning of checking the feeding stations and walking/driving/walking the area with no sightings I was pretty sad driving home when I got a call from Karen saying someone had called her Sunday night to report SEEING TOBY AGAIN. Karen was late getting the call because her phone was charging. She called them back and confirmed that yes indeed it was our little Toby - they tried to catch him but he got away.
I went back out this evening and met Karen, Lisa and Debra all there all looking for Toby, along with three little boys from the neighborhood. Since yesterday evening's sighting had been about 8pm, I went over to Red, Hot & Blue around 7ish to get some steaming hot BBQ to draw him out. We strategically placed it all around the townhouses where he was seen both times. I walked around until 10pm carrying the rest of the BBQ (getting hungrier and hungrier myself!) Once I got home with the rest of the BBQ, a bag of Beggin Strips and some liver treats leftover, I quickly leashed up the Beagles to get them out straight away. Before even thinking about doing their business they were both in the driveway jumping up against the doors of the truck with such energy the the truck was rocking back-and-forth as they tried to get at the food. And that is way one shouldn't feed the bears.
