Bear in a Hammock

Daytona Beach, FL



A black bear that had wandered through a Florida neighborhood causing a ruckus capped things off by climbing into a resident's backyard hammock.

The furry visitor spent about 20 minutes on Thursday evening hanging out in the Daytona Beach hammock, TV station WKMG reports.

Soon after the bear headed into the woods, homeowner Vincent James took down the hammock, WESH reports.

Neighbor Rafael Torres snapped photos of the bear from about 60 feet away after noticing that something had rummaged through his garbage.

Rummage through garbage for lunch, then take a siesta on furniture around the pool.

Spring and fall are bear season around here and yes, they do come fairly far into the city.
