camera shy bobcats

We’re so lucky to be able to see as much wildlife as we do. I’ve successfully photographed
Mule Deer, Javelina, Coyote, Raptors, Birds, Quail, flower eating lizards and more but even
though we have many Bobcats up here, I have yet to get a really good portrait. I run for my
camera as quickly as possible but usually catch their backsides 🙂

Here’s another Bobcat captured a couple of days ago.

The only reason I was able to get a second photo was that he was waiting for a hiker to go by!

They see us a lot more than we see them :-)

Another goal is a photo of Mountain Lion which are frequently seen in our area. There are plenty
of deer and Javelina for them to feed on but I’m still nervous hiking very early or late in the day!
