‘bear pottery’

And then there is ‘bear pottery’ 
farming salmon adjacent to a bear sanctuary:

while waiting for spawning season 
as the ice begins to melt, 
those that have unhibernated 
are whiling the time away 
at the potter’s wheel….

I understand that they haven't really 'thrown' themselves into it and they tend to 'crack' as the heat builds.😄

Bears - ever the cultured lot, the recently unhibernated have taken to ceramics - as a meditative exercise maybe!
