Caught a bobcat on the trailcam carefully placing its paws in the footprints I had made a couple days before in the deep snow. When it gets to where I turned around, it looks around and decides - nope, not going out there, and turns to go down to the brook.

@danmccullough Oh my goodness, Dan, what a treat.

@danmccullough You have a bobcat! Wonderful!

My nearby wildlife refuge caught a bobcat on a trail cam last year for the first time ever. This is VERY unexpected but quite exciting.

@danmccullough Wow, this is really neat. I saw one last summer and was stunned to be face to face over a creek.

I hope you and I both get to see the bobcats again.

@ClimateJenny Hopefully the refuge will get more sightings! I find that they don’t use the trail as much as the foxes and smaller mammals.

[danmccullough@ecoevo.social]

@forestfern I think we have a decent population of them and I’ve only come face to face with one (also while it was at a creek!) in the years I’ve been here so maybe we both will get to see more.

@danmccullough Heard there's more and more here in MI, too. Let's hope we see them again!
