VIDEO: Watch Big Black Bear Go Swimming In Alabama Lake

Summertime is here regardless of what the calendar says!

It is in the air, and everybody is feeling it.

Summer is one of the best seasons for so many reasons.

One of the best things about summer in Alabama is taking a refreshing swim anytime, anywhere.

SKINNY DIPPING ANYONE?

When it's so hot you can't stand it for another minute, you just need a refreshing swim.

Did you bring a bathing suit? Well......

In this case, a huge bear (one of MANY sightings of late in Alabama) decided to jump in without a bathing suit and go for a relaxing swim.

Bears are everywhere this summer in Alabama.

Imagine looking out your window and seeing that up in your tree?

It certainly seems that way, and we love it when you send us your photos and videos of the wildlife in your neck of the woods.
