It was quite the sight for a local family who spotted a bear and her baby cub Thursday.

The momma bear and her cub were right in the family's backyard early Thursday afternoon in the Fox Pines neighborhood. The Fox Pines Subdivision is just north of Colorado Springs in unincorporated El Paso county.

The bears helped themselves to the bird feeder before taking a little bath and sunning themselves before meandering off again into the woods.
