I'm just getting my head around solo Night-O in woods with scary animals!

You mean scared animals. They will be long gone once the night-Os start their commotion.

Just don't be the first to go out. Let others scare them into hiding.

And the conclusion? (as if we don't know:). When the suet bird feeder is found 100m away, it's THE bear, generally a spring affair. Perhaps, finally, a different one after many years of BF displacement/destruction but the conclusion is the same.

Conclusion? Lots of scary things running around the woods that night, all with these dazzling bright lights blinding any innocent bystander. Good fun.

But the finding, my dear Sherlock, was on the afternoon of the 9th. The night of which you speak, the night the dazzling lights terrorized that poor innocent bystander bear, had not yet occurred!

ps stayed up late watching OLIVER TWIST, so many twists & turns I'm still not sure of the outcome, 85% through. It was cruel misfortune to be an orphan/waif-child in London in 19th century England, subject to the Poor Law.

Probably not much fun to be an orphan/waif-child these days either.

I find if I have a good night-o once a year, it seems to clear most of the bears out of the neighborhood. I am thinking about how to organize an underwater night-o to scare away the beavers. Bears are over-rated as an annoyance compared to the nasty beavers.

They certainly keep the 'tree-lawn' mowed! I admire their industriousness. Busy as bees, err, beavers.
