Bobcat Road

 

Bobcat Passing Through
(composite image)

Much of area around the big flat-topped rock in the lower middle of the frame used to be a watering hole. All that's left after last year's storms filled the hole with rocks is that little puddle in the lower right part of the frame.

The bobcat above stopped briefly to spray the corner of that big rock to its left, which you can see in the video below. In the next capture, a gray fox stops to investigate the bobcat's scent mark. The bobcat passes through a few more times, always heading downstream. The video ends with a crunch, courtesy of a Steller's jay.
