As a full moon rises in Aspen, a crowd gathers to watch a bear in a tree, in front of the courthouse. It has a "Jellystone Park" kind of feeling to it

It was kind of surreal, really. Driving down Main Street, and there it is, a Bear Crowd. A knot of people on the sidewalk rushing toward a rustling tree, pointing, laughing and smiling. The bears are delighting visitors who are not used to the site of large, furry and potentially dangerous mammals hanging out in their town. A photographer with a long lens got closer. The tree branches shook. The crowd moved across Main Street. They yelled at someone coming down the sidewalk to be careful. The dark spot in the branches came down and scampered off. The photographer followed. The people talked about the bear as the moon continued its climb.
