BOBCAT

Walking around my sister's property today I saw two Bobcats. I got this one and was trying to get the other and when they saw me they took off.

Nicely done... Don't have Bobcats up here...but if they are anything like their cousins the lynks they are tough to get a chance at them

How nice! We don't have too many around here anymore, they've built too many houses. V

Oh, wow, Cindi. I love this shot. What a gorgeous Bobcat, and you were so close! ~

Pretty close, very nice catch.
J. Scott Coile05-Sep-2010 14:21
Amazing capture. They're very skidish around here. Hard to get a shot of in the wild.
Bill Ewart Jr05-Sep-2010 13:47
We get squirrels and bunnies on our property. If I ever saw a Bobcat out there I think I would freak out!~

Eeek! You were so close! And lucky to capture such a great shot. I saw a mountain lion once in Connecticut (very rare) but didn't have my camera with me . Great photo! Does your sister live in a rural area of TX?
lisamidi04-Sep-2010 23:15
WOW! You're lucky to see these beautiful animals in nature! Very cool to take a picture as perfect as this! Bravo! bv

AMAZING!!! I have not seen more than about 8 in my life, never when I had a camera at hand. I was just thinking how much I would love to see and photograph one. This is fabulous, and as Paulo says, a privilege. Well done Cindi! V
Glenn D.04-Sep-2010 22:41
Wow, a perfect catch and close too. V
(I guess you were so close you could read his name tag and see it read "Bob")
pkocinski04-Sep-2010 22:36
