A viewer sent in photo and video the bear, which was spotted in a backyard at 7 p.m. on Wednesday.

The bear knocked over the bird feeder, sat on the ground and ate for a while before going back into the Lillian Kellman Nature Reserve on Woodland Drive.

Wednesday's bear sighting was the latest in a string of sightings in the Pittsburgh area.

Henry Kacprzyk, with the Pittsburgh Zoo and PPG Aquarium, says breeding season is one of the factors to the numerous sightings.
