Shenandoah National Park
Black Bear (Ursus americanus)
As you walk a trail or drive along Skyline Drive, you might meet a black bear, possibly a mother with her cub or cubs. A bear cub, when born in late winter, weighs only about 8 ounces. It is hard to believe that this cub will grow to 300 - 500 pounds.

FOR loving the city
Translated as (from German): We live in the city because we love it. No other place is so inspiring, so exciting, so diverse. Where others see chaos, we see beauty. Where others complain about noise, we listen to music. And where others feel restricted, we see plenty of space.
