My bobcat

Well, I don't think any cat can be said to be anybody's, but this one sure behaved this way for at least a few minutes. A friend from NJ Audubon alerted me to a place in Delaware Water Gap where there've been recent sightings of bobcats. I've tried it a few times, and finally just a few days ago met one! It came onto the trail just a few yards away from me. But rather than run away, it sat down and posed for me there for good 10 minutes, even as I was inching closer trying to get clearer pictures. When it eventually moved, it was to chase some bird into the bush.

Other type of bird watching

As in, watching another type of birds!

On this last picture, check out the plane that's taking off right in front of the one that's landing. That's some tight pacing!
