Is that a chestnut oak or bigtooth aspen he's climbing? With the northern red oak in the background of pic#2 (large tree, rear-right) I would guess it's a chestnut oak.

gbreadman-
It's a variety of oak, but I'm not sure which kind. We have several types of oak trees in our area, and I tend to just call them all Oaks. If you think it looks like a chestnut oak, it probably is.

Thanks for identifying the northern red oak tree in the background too!

Belated fireworks. The hummingbird would not cooperate, but is definitely addicted to them.

I haven't had time to take many pics this summer. So I went through last years archive.

Here is one of my favorites from last summer...

These are photos of Flora. Flora is the same bear I entered in the June Photo of the Month Contest.

Except now Flora is 13 months older in the photos below. That makes him a yearling. Photos were taken a couple of days ago.

Actually Flora is doing spectacular on his own. His sister, Flower, misses her mum though.
