So I went to water my plants this morning ...

Post by PinkDiamond »

We, like so many of you, are caught in an Arctic blast, with temps in the single digits and below, and they won't be budging for a few days, plus it's snowing. I went into the living room to water my plants, and when I looked out the picture window, this is what I saw, although by the time I ran and got my camera he had moved down the hill so I had to zoom in so you could see him. Check this out. 8-)

I even opened the door to get the shots and it didn't phase him a bit. What a treat to have gone in there just in time to see that beauty! Between that and the myriad of types of birds crowding my feeders by the dozens, I have the best show on earth right outside my door. Gosh I love living so close to nature! :D

Cool. Is that a lynx or a bushy bobcat?

Bobcat, most likely the one I got a closeup shot of a couple of years ago when he was right outside the window in here looking in at me. viewtopic.php?f=29&t=3700&p=16203&hilit=bobcat#p16203

It's been spotted often enough that I take a taser with me if I have to walk the half mile thru the forest to the mailbox with the dog. I'm counting on the sound of it and the sparks it makes to spook him if he ever approaches us because I wouldn't want to shoot a gorgeous creature like that. Now if it was a bear, that might be a different story. LOL! :lol:
