This morning I was sitting on my back patio and a Bobcat came over the fence and chased down a Rabbit. The Rabbit did not have a chance! The Bobcat captured the rabbit and then proceeded to play with it for about 10 minutes hunting and stalking it until he finally decided it was breakfast time. I ran inside to grab my Canon and started clicking away. The Bobcat took about 15 minutes to devour the rabbit then took a break on my pool deck, cleaned himself, snoozed for a bit, had a drink then off over the fence for the next meal. All in all got to observe him for a good 40 minutes and over 200 pictures later here are a few good ones.
