The return of the bobcats

A couple of weeks ago I wrote this post moments after a bobcat went strolling across our back fence. We've seen another, smaller one since then- both on the fence and in our driveway. Well, one is here again and this time I had time to grab my camera and get a couple quick shots for you...

Forgive the quality of this picture- it was taken through both the dirty sliding glass door (time to break out the Windex!) and the closed screen door. But anyway- you can get an idea of the size of the bobcat walking on our 7 foot tall fence.



Since this particular cat hung out for a couple minutes (he was hunting) I slipped outside, Elmer Fudd style, and managed to get a closer shot for you...



Isn't he pretty? And yes- our kitties are staying inside now...

Such an elegantly striking creature. (am glad that the cats are inside though)
