I' guessin' that he took that snapshot from way over yonder?

He paints up there a lot, so when he heard something in the bushes behind him he thought it might be a bear. He stepped about 20 feet away, takes out a can of bear spray. Sees the bear put a paw on the fence and it snaps like a toothpick

he watches taking pictures, the bear got into a bottle of water looked around, and then left. He said he was told later that thinking bear spray could save you is not a good idea. That there was a guy who emptied two cans of spray on a bear and still got killed.
