Watch out for bears
Two bears passed within a few feet of a Fogg Road home and a porch where a woman was reading on Aug. 20 in one of several bear sitings reported on Buxton Community Board recently.
“I almost had a heart attack,” the woman posted. “They were so close, I flew into the house and I guess that scared them as they ran into the side yard.”
One report said a cub and mama bear on Aug. 20 crossed Route 112 at Skip Road and traveled in the direction of Bonny Eagle Pond. Another pair was recently reported in the vicinity of Bonny Eagle High School on Saco Road.
