… a few years ago I was out on the deck with One and an adult bobcat decided to come up and pay us a visit … One did not charge the bobcat and I sat down on the gravel about ten feet from her. She had been sitting and got up and walked to within six feet of me and sat down again and was staring me down … I had a little conversation with her whilst firing off dozens of shots and after a minute or so decided to make myself bigger and stood up … she stayed put. It was a great experience and a little tense too, as being seated made me much smaller in her eyes and I sensed I was being considered a potential meal … maybe not, but standing up and becoming bigger put the advantage back in my court. I also got wonderful portrait shots of her.
Another beautiful day nearly completed and hope for another one which will be underway in about five hours. Heading up to Bearizona in Williams and hoping for some good shooting of wolves and whatever else we can get. I like that you can drive through and shoot from the car.
This is it for the week, the plan is to be back on Monday morning. Have a beautiful day and weekend … keep smiling and even more important, keep breathing … enjoy the moment!
Cheers,
Ted
