Thanksgiving Bobcat

11/29/2013

I came home after a twenty- eight mile bike ride out the Valley Road, preparing a tart for the evening and looked out the window to glimpse this bobcat making its way through my back yard area about ten feet from the house. I quickly got my camera and went around the house to see if I might see it. It was in the bushes so much like its own color I almost didn't see it. Then it caught my scent and/or heard me, jumped up on the tree branch just long enough for me to get this photo. Such a special gift .

What an amazing moment, as you and the bobcat gaze at each other close together in your garden, then passed through your lens for us, far away, to engage in continuing to look into his eyes.
