I was standing on my outdoor fireplace shooting a backyard bird when all of a sudden this guy quietly sneaks up on me on the other side of my gate. These are not good pictures, but they sure did make me feel alive.

    Did you say "Here, Kitty Kitty?"

    My brother and I saw a bobcat run across the road in Maine last month. I'd honestly never seen one in the wild before. I'm sure you've seen more of them, eh Dan? How long did he stick around?

    I'm pretty sure it is Ben. We also had a mountain lion sighting in the area, but no snow, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, or floods rolleyes1.gif

    He was behind the gate, and I don't think bobcats attack people, but I appreciate the credit anyway Steve.thumb.gif
