Dave Bess looked out the window of his house and saw this young Bobcat hunting for rodents.
It looks like the Bobcat is close to finding its dinner. They are great gopher hunters and the meadows of The Sea Ranch have plenty of gophers.
Thanks to Dave for allowing me to share his photo with you here.
Mark was watching this Bobcat hunting Gophers at his place in Manchester. The Bobcat was so intent that it ignored Mark and his camera.
And you will see below, the Bobcat was successful.
Thanks to Mark for allowing me to share his photos with you here.

Jan de Vries spotted a young Bobcat near his home of The Sea Ranch. It sure looks to be a young one.
This Bobcat hasn't really filled out yet but he's already out hunting rodents. Have I mentioned The Sea Ranch has plenty of gophers? Bobcats can be seen hunting gophers in grassy meadows during the daytime.
Thanks to Jan for allowing me to share his photo with you here.

Thom Matson recently spotted a big, beautiful Bobcat outside his house on The Sea Ranch. It appeared to be hunting for a gopher or some other rodent.
You can see the fog hanging over the Pacific Ocean. Yes, we've been having very foggy mornings this week. The dark masses on the ocean are some patches of the abundant summer-time kelp just offshore.
Below is one of my favorite photos of a close-up of a Bobcat, taken by Siegfried Matull.
Thanks to Thom and Siegfried for allowing me to share their photos with you here.
A beautiful Bobcat was spotted by Jan de Vries hunting in the meadow outside his Sea Ranch home. The Bobcat stayed long enough for Jan to take a series of photos. One photo was published in the Independent Coast Observer this week and can be seen at http://www.mendonoma.com/. Jan has kindly allowed me to share several more photos here.
Such a healthy, beautiful Bobcat, it was probably hunting for Gophers in Jan's meadow.
