VIDEO: Bear Visits Backyard in Middlefield

Ken and Kathryn Twombly got a surprise visitor to their backyard in Middlefield this week.

The couple captured a small bear eating away at their bird feeders along West Street Monday morning.

On Tuesday, the hungry bear returned to the home and climbed up on the couple's deck to curiously paw through two empty bird feeders.

According to the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection's website, only two bear sightings have been recorded in the past year in Middlefield.
