As we were taking a walk through Bentsen State Park late this afternoon, we spotted this bobcat at the Resaca Vieja trail head. First time we’ve ever seen one in the wild. It slowly walked off into the woods as we approached. I watched it with the binoculars while Jim tried to get a picture. What a beautiful creature.
Speaking of creatures, yesterday was Cinderella Pet Rescue day, and this crazy cat was climbing the rafters. It gives me great pleasure going there and interacting with the cats. Just wish we could find good homes for them all.
A beautiful end to the day.
Both cats are beautiful. How lucky were you to see a bobcat in the wild!!
ReplyDeleteVery cool on the bobcat!
ReplyDeleteNow I'm jealous, I've never been lucky enough to spot in the wild.
ReplyDeleteThat was a great bobcat picture. FABULOUS markings.
ReplyDeleteI've only seen one in my lifetime and that was on the Appalachian trail. I was so happy I started skipping and tripped and broke my ankle. I still love bobcats!!
WOW...how cool is that! Glad you got a picture...we may have all wondered if you two just saw a big pussy cat...LOL ~wheresweaver
ReplyDeleteHow great you saw the bobcat. Hope we are that lucky during our time at Santa Ana NWR.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pix - all 3! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love sighting those elusive hard-to-find animals? We saw a burrowing owl in a prairie dog town in South Dakota last May. I only saw him for a second and didn't get a picture, but it was still a great day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great find. Glad you are enjoying the pet rescue center. The pet pics are priceless.
ReplyDeleteHey I just spotted my first bobcat when I went home to visit my family in Illinois! Guys, I always enjoy your pictures...always well-done.
