Black bear seen again at Scituate home
SCITUATE, R.I. (WPRI) — A black bear was once again spotted outside a Scituate home on Sunday.
Erin McManus said it was the second time her cameras captured a black bear roaming her property.
A video of the sighting on Sunday showed the bear walking around on the deck before leaving.

The first sighting, exactly one week prior on Oct. 27, went a bit differently. The bear was seen on video knocking down and walking off with a bird feeder.
It's unclear if both visits were by the same bear.
The state's Department of Environmental Management (DEM) asks that residents report sightings like these online . In the event of an active problem with a bear or other animal, the DEM recommends contacting their law enforcement division at (401)-222-3070.
