The leaves are turning and there's a chill in the air signalling a change in the season.
In this photo, taken Oct. 7 in Port Moody, a yearling bear cub fell asleep under a tree after eating fallen apples.
"Residents are reminded to pick their fruit when ripe and to collect fallen fruit from the ground. Waste fruit can be put into the yard waste cart or a home compost bin," said Port Moody environmental services technician Rick Saunier, who submitted the photo.
The bear was subsequently nudged back into the woods by conservation officers and Saunier said the remaining fruit was picked by the homeowner after the incident.
