Home security cameras captured the adorable moment a mama bear and her two cubs enjoyed playing on a swing in Colorado.
The family was spotted making the most of summer on Wednesday in southwest Colorado Springs, when one of the pups stopped to jump on a swing.
Owner Mike shared a video of the special moment after his home cameras captured the mammals.
The bears were also seen crossing the road before heading to the playground.

Before heading to the playground, the trio crossed the street together and emerged from a wooded area (pictured).
The first clip begins with the family of three walking leisurely through a lawn filled with trees.
At first, the mother bear led the way for her babies before they ran ahead of her in their excitement.
They cross the road as the mother heads in one direction while her pups explore the grass around them before following her.
The mother then leads them behind a group of trees as a mail truck passes by on the road.
As soon as they spot the playground, the babies quickly run to check it out while their mother keeps an eye on them.
One of the pups tries to climb a tree while the other climbs onto the deck and explores.
While one of the pups played on a swing, the other explored the deck area.
After a couple of minutes of play, the mother bear and her cubs left the backyard.
After falling from the tree, one of the cubs jumps onto a swing with its two front paws before jumping on it.
The trio then continue exploring Mike’s backyard as the video ends.
“Despite popular misconceptions, mother bears with cubs rarely attack humans,” Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) said, adding that humans should still not approach a mother bear and her children.
The agency added that in late summer and early fall, bears have to search for food for up to 20 hours a day. People should never offer them food, CPW added.
There are an estimated 17,000 to 20,000 bears in Colorado. The agency reported.
When puppies are born in winter, they weigh less than a pound and are blind, toothless and covered in “very fine” fur.
By mid-May, the pups weigh between 10 and 15 pounds and remain with their mother for the first year of their lives.
When the second spring arrives, the cubs are independent and separate from their mothers in autumn.
In July, a mother bear and her cub were caught climbing into a hatchback in Connecticut.
The bears tore apart the interior of the car while the horn and radio were blaring.
In July, a mother bear and her cub were caught on camera climbing into a hatchback in Connecticut.
On the morning of July 15, the vehicle’s owner called state environmental police, who destroyed the vehicle’s interior while honking the horn and blasting the radio.
They opened a door and the two bears ran off into the woods, while a third cub that was outside the vehicle followed them.
The interior of the car was completely destroyed by the animals.
Authorities believe they entered the vehicle by opening a door, but it is unclear how the door closed behind them.

Jason Wightman of Sierra Madre didn’t know how to react when the 300-pound animal burst through an open gate and into his home at 5:30 p.m. on June 4.
He shared a five-minute video of the interaction on Facebook, which created suspense and racked up more than 2,000 views.
In the incredible clip, the animal cautiously peeked its head around the corner and looked at the homeowner before approaching.
After talking to the bear, Wightman soon realized there was a second one in his yard.
The bears clearly didn’t want to leave, even after the man opened a gate and continued making noises to scare them away. However, they eventually jumped a fence and left the property.
