      True, only yell if the animal is about to charge you (because you have done something stupid in their territory), then stand your ground, make yourself look big, and holler in a strong, authoritative voice (do not scream! Do not run - they are faster! Running triggers their chase instinct).

      Black bears are foragers, not killers - unless a human does something really stupid near a bear, and even then a black bear attack is rarely fatal.
      Black bears should be respected and left alone, but not feared.
      Be alert when you are in their territory, and always carry noise makers and bear spray when hiking.

    LOVED viewing your video this morning, so blessed it appeared in my feed! Noticing you are at 333 subscribers, wanted for you to realize that # is a blessing, before one more arrives. Here I have copied some words in that regard:
    The number 333 is a powerful symbol with spiritual significance. According to numerology, it represents spiritual awakening, personal growth, and manifestation123. It is often seen as a message from the universe that you are on the right path and that your prayers and intentions are being heard2. Biblically, 333 is tied to divine truth and spiritual maturity3. For twin flames, 333 signifies alignment and reassurance3. Dreaming of 333 highlights spiritual alignment and personal growth3. It is believed that the Ascended Masters are trying to guide you towards your life’s purpose and help you fulfill your soul mission4.

      To help you in your appreciation, I will add that we are all IN the Age of Aquarius. We left Pisces (2000 year cycle!) some years ago now. Your water feature is surely pleasing! Notice though, that Aquarius seeks to deliver pure water and transparency and truths. As you know, the rain cleanses the air and in doing so, even the birdbath may appear green with pollens or other pollutants. I understand (somewhat) that your pump system reuses water and perhaps filters and of course conserves water. But in BIGGER terms, truths and lessons have been recycled and rerun far beyond the point of "learning" to be better from wrong and instead accepted at correct, right and even rights to wrong.
      I will leave it there, as I remind that saying or doing the same thing over and again to the same or worse- yet result is not only the definition of insanity, but the cause!
      Love from an old Aquarius, who was healed by God by a beautiful pond, which "authorities" insisted it their right to destroy.
      I put out bowls on the ground and bird baths for all my feathered and furry friends, who appreciate!

      @michaelanderson3096 - They most definitely are not.
      Black bears are primarily herbivores, and do not hunt big game (like humans).
      I was involved with black bear cub rescues in my younger days, and know that black bears only injure humans when the human has done something stupid, or blundered into the path of a mother bear and her cubs.
      Here's an excerpt from an "Outdoor Life" article: Although black bears are omnivores, plants make up the bulk of their natural diet. Based on the research reports he’s studied, Myron Means (of the Arkansas Fish and Game Commission) says a black bear’s diet is usually 80 to 90 percent herbaceous material-that is grasses, leaves, berries, nuts, and agricultural crops."
      All that being said, if you fear black bears that much, you should definitely stay out of bear country - animals sense fear quite easily
