Today was a Bobcat morning! We woke up to 8 inches of freshly fallen snow and new tracks on the driveway. It wasn't long before we saw a family of bobcats.

| The youngest was extremely attentive to movement in the snow. |
This one kept a close eye on me while the other two raced up a tree trying to catch a squirrel. I had no idea they could climb trees so quickly!

| This was a special sight. As bobcats get close to one year of age, they are on their own. |
After chasing the squirrels in the trees, they took off together up the hill leaving only their tracks in the snow.Since these animals are elusive and diurnal, it was quite special to see them this morning.
