Stay Alert

You jump out of the truck, (with no jacket, wearing your Daddy's hat, and no shoes) to take a picture in the beautiful forest. Wait.....what's that in the background?


A bobcat! Yikes! You never know what is lurking in the woods around here.

  9. Oh my gosh!!! Did the bobcat just sit there for a photo-op? Do they attack people? We don't have bobcats but we have coyotes. I've heard them but never have seen one. People say they won't attack people but I'm not tempting them. Great pictures!

  23. Wow- doesn't look too happy.
    I came across a cougar about 2 years. He was just happily wandering across the street. About 1.5 from my house. Looked like he did it every day - no sense of urgency whatsoever.
