Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Aww, beautiful work! Reminds me of 335 Jolly (who has cubs of her own this year) in 2021 150
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 04/05/2026Bears are so cute when they do that! (@explore.org's katmai bear cam watchers call it "bitey face") 030
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 13/02/2026February means Pancake Month at Clinton st baking co. Today’s special: Key Lime Coconut Pancakes! They were my fav from last year. The bright tart key lime curd and the light fluffy coconut whipped cream were the stars of the dish 060
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 23/12/2025Same! I think and worry about the bears every winter, but this year I know they're all enjoying a nice hibernation after a super successful summer. Here's a gif of 503 and 32 Chunk playing to bring you a little smile 181
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 02/12/2025Baby animals love riding on mom's back. Also seen at Katmai when 482 Brett's little cub held on tight even as mom fiercely shook herself dry after a swim. From Explore.org 's bear cam, summer 2021 190
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 14/06/2025Over at explore's bear chat, people are posting about #480 Otis, King of Katmai, in honor of no kings day. It's a nice iteration on a board where political discussions are not allowed. We may never see Otis again (he would be ~30 yrs old this year) but he's forever loved. From August 2022: 1210
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 11/06/2025I hear that they've sent technicians out so hopefully soon! (But maybe don't hire 910's girl.... she wasn't very helpful in August 2022) 060
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 08/05/2025She's always so fun to watch. I love how she's a bit cranky like mom 284. Every time she charges/yells at some bear for no reason I smile a little. She was a great first-time mom, too. Hopefully she'll have more cubs in the future. PS found this gif I saved of her doing yoga 170
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 02/05/2025Spring! (Walking past fragrant lilac bushes at night is such a treat) 0132
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 25/04/2025Still spring! (eyes swollen, nose stuffy, sneezing constantly) 0131
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 20/04/2025Oh I love that the weather raccoon sheds its winter coat upper body first. We have a lot of fun looking at different shed patterns of the brown bears on @explore.org's bear cam. #821 "Pepper" famously had his fuzzy pajama pants the entire summer in 2021, seen here via Katmai NPS photo 161
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 19/04/2025Yeah I think it was before my time, too. But I remember watching a video of him fishing on the lip with mom and younger brother 812 and it was very charming. Ps was trying to look for a snapshot of him on the lip and found this gif of little sister 101 sticking her tongue out at him ❤️ 150
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 07/04/2025Spring! (taking hits of flonase spray like nobody’s business) 0171
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 28/03/2025Bead loves mom, example #2894 (July 2023, gif from @explore.org bear cam) 051
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 24/03/2025Oh yes the mom was #806 "Little Lip Fisher". We saw the fight on the bear cam that day and it was very scary! Thank goodness the cub was okay- not sure if you knew but he ended up winning Fat Bear Junior that year. 😉 Here's a gif of the incident since the camera was pretty glitchy 150
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 22/03/2025Sunny day in Spring of Deception before the temperature drops again tomorrow 0120
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 21/03/2025Love 504! In a sea of blonde beauties, she really stands out with her gorgeous dark coat. Also she has produced some of the goofiest little bears. Remember this? (Pepperoni as a spring cub in fall 2021) 151
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 09/03/2025Snatched a special Cafe du Monde bun from Red Gate Bakery today: brioche bun with espresso filling, espresso cream cheese frosting, topped with powdered sugar like those beloved beignets you’d get in nola 180
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 26/02/2025Final offering of Clinton st baking co’s Pancake Month: Blueberry Yuzu Pancakes. Served with with yuzu curd, vanilla bean whipped cream, yuzu syrup, shortbread crumble, and, of course, their signature warm maple butter 3732
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 21/02/2025Clinton st baking co’s pancake month continues. Today’s special: Raspberry Jam Pancakes. Served on a pool of real raspberry jam and topped with fresh raspberries, toasted almond butter, and vanilla whipped cream 6501
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 13/02/2025In this house we celebrate two holidays: Katmai’s Fat Bear Week every October, and Clinton St Baking Co’s Pancake month every February. Today’s offering: cinnamon roll pancakes 3523
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 09/02/2025A little bit of Christmas in February after the overnight snow 0201
Ciociofarfalla @ciociofarfalla.bsky.social · 27/01/2025Very happy with my choice of brunch today with the egg prices and imminent tariff on Colombian imports 050
