Every now and then the trail cameras capture something pretty spectacular that would be nearly impossible to see in person. The candid shots of the animals going about their daily rounds are always enjoyable.
Last fall, though, we got an amazing glimpse of a bobcat returning home with a fat fox squirrel for a breakfast feast. It's rare that we get to see them when we're out in the woods, since they're primarily nocturnal - we catch a rare glimpse of one running across our path, but nothing so relaxed and content as this. The carpet of brilliant maple leaves is pretty spectacular too.
I know, poor squirrel, but that's the way of nature. The bobcat has to make a living, too.

Cool pic! All I ever get on my cam is nothing, as if the trigger was delayed and whatever the action was has already gone by. I get a lot of those. Arf. A bobcat would be a breath of fresh air!
Hugs to ya, from BetsyLee
How cool. We get to live a real live nature show through your photos.

BetsyLee, we get a lot of nothing, too, but every now and then something interesting is captured and it makes going through all the pictures worth the effort. :) Hugs right back!
Sheila, thank you. I'm glad you enjoy my odd little excursions and the odd trail cam discoveries. :)
