As you can see, Bobcats hunt in grassy meadows. They are listening and looking for rodents. In Ron Bolander's photo, you can clearly see the tufted ears of this beautiful creature.
Bobcats are year round residents of the Mendonoma Coast and they are often seen in the daylight hours, such as when Ron got this photo.
Thanks to Ron for allowing me to share it with you here.
Cold fog right on the coast but warm sunshine just a bit away. Rain is in our forecast for next week!
Ron Bolander noticed this Bobcat a ways off in a meadow along Lighthouse Road in Point Arena.
You can clearly see this Bobcat's tufted ears. They love Gophers and Voles and such. The meadows on the way in to the Point Arena Lighthouse have an ample supply!
Thanks to Ron for allowing me to share his photos with you here.
oh, what a beautiful day today. Flat ocean, sunny skies, temps in the low 60's. Gray Whales are going by our portion of the coast now, headed south to the lagoons off Baja.
James Adams spotted this beautiful Bobcat hunting in a meadow on The Sea Ranch.
You can see the tufted ears in James' photo. Fun fact: each Bobcat's markings are unique, just like our fingerprints.
Thanks to James for allowing me to share his photo with you here.
We are having sunny but windy weather today. The northwest wind causes upwelling in the Pacific Ocean, igniting the entire food chain.
Allen Vinson got lucky when this Bobcat strolled by, nicely accented by a Douglas Iris in bloom.
Then the Bobcat looked at Allen and he got this photo of its face. You can clearly see the tufted ears.
Bobcats are seen year round in grassy meadows here on the Mendonoma Coast.

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.
