Peter Cracknell photographed a Bobcat recently. The first shows the Bobcat hunting, probably hunting a tasty gopher.
The next photo shows the Bobcat from behind - its tufted ears and bobbed tail are clearly shown.
Bobcats are year round residents of the Mendonoma Coast. It is always a treat to see one - unless you have chickens!
Thanks to Peter for allowing me to share his photos with you here.
Allen Vinson looked out his Sea Ranch home and saw a Bobcat on its back with its feet in the air, obviously scratching its back. The Bobcat then stood up and stared right at Allen!
The cat with the tufted ears and bobbed tail actually took a few strides towards Allen. But it veered off and went its own way, leaving Allen in peace.
Thanks to Allen for allowing me to share his photo with you here.
It is wonderful to see a Bobcat saunter by your back deck. That's just what happened to Thom Matson at his home on The Sea Ranch.
You can clearly see its tufted ears and short, bobbed tail. Below is another photo of the Bobcat, walking across a meadow with the Pacific Ocean as a backdrop.
Bobcats love gophers and The Sea Ranch meadows have plenty of them!
Thanks to Thom for allowing me to share his photos with you here.
Bobcats are being seen more frequently the past couple of weeks. It appears the mothers are hunting for "real" food for their kittens. Janet Burch recently photographed one on The Sea Ranch.
You can see the Bobcat is looking right at Janet and her camera. This cat with the tufted ears and bobbed tail is a year round resident of the Mendonoma Coast. Look for them in grassy meadows hunting for their favorite food - gophers!
Thanks to Janet for allowing me to share her photo with you here.
We never can get enough of good Bobcat photos. Bobcats are thriving on the Mendonoma Coast. Here they hunt in the daytime, giving photographers a chance to get a wonderful wildlife photo. Jane Larrow did just that.
And here the Bobcat turned to look back at Jane.
Bobcats are about twice the size of a house cat. They have tufted ears and bobbed tails. Gophers are among their favorite snacks.
Thanks to Jane for allowing me to share her photo with you here.
