Field Notes

Description:

We had another visit by a mom Bobcat and her two little ones. Mom and one of them were soaking up the warmth on a sunny day after several chilly days. The other baby was climbing the tree behind my wall and walking on the neighbor's wall. Mom was not at all concerned with me taking the photos. After she looked up (last photo) she put her head back down to finish her nap. I feel so lucky when I get to see these beautiful animals. :)

Habitat:

The bobcat occurs in all the 48 contiguous states, southern Canada and parts of Mexico and occupy a variety of habitat from low desert to high elevation forests.

Lucky you, love her tail in the last picture. Mine has a much shorter tail.
