Life in the Country- Here Kitty, Kitty…

bobcat

  Look who wandered in front of the deer camera this past week.  He/She’s not very clear.  When I play around with it in my photo-editing programs, I think its coat is more bobcat-ish.

  In the meantime, the land is green, the cabins a beautiful white and the roses are blooming.  Even the Big Ugly is beginning to show signs of life.

Yep, those ears look pretty bobcat-ish to me. Things are looking good at your mountain homestead!

It is an interesting picture. I would say it is most likely a bobcat. For one thing the ears are set high on the head, like a bobcat, as well as being pointed more than a cougar's would be. http://www.flickr.com/photos/lance_mountain/2313214524/
this link is good for seeing the back of a bobcat.

this link can help with future identification. I know they are out there, good luck with the trail camera!

regarding your other blog... I would swear that I have read all of those one liners before, it make for a great "best of" poem. I will have to catch up on you, and begin writing again myself. Glad to see you are still here Nancy.
