No, your eyes did not deceive you, Bethesda, there really was a black bear walking around town by the NIH campus earlier today. It's not quite the surprise of the bull that was wandering around Baltimore as black bears are found in the area, but usually they don't come into areas where humans congregate. The bear was tranquilized and transported away earlier this afternoon. [DCist; Photo by Flickr user ucumari]
