[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is the third and the last photo of this Bobcat
(Lynx rufus). In my second photo I guess he saw me seat in ground using my left knee as a tripod and taking photos of him, but he dindnt mind at all, so he just walk away and get lost in to the small shrubs.
It was a wonderful moment for me, and I will never forget it. So good bye my friend, take care, and I hope to see you some other time.
Luis Leal.

You have concluded a wonderful 3 piece series on this animal..I was VERY impressed. I know where you are and I know how unusual this is for you to get pictures so good. Congratulation my good fiend...Ya know..I am allergic to onions..which is why I rarely eat your style of food and I think maybe everything you folks have has onions...If I come down there and visit one day...perhaps I shall go on a Tequila diet:-)

Hi Luis
Well done capturing this illusive Bobcat. I know Bobcats aren't the easiest animal to find and photograph. It's great to see this beautiful animal in the wild.

I am amazed that you managed to get three good shots of him. I am jealous. You got your Christmas present early!

Hello Luis,
THis must have been a fantastic experience for you!! It is such a beautiful animal and you managed to get several brilliant shots.
Here he looks straight at you and doesn't seem worried at all! Excellent shot in fine light and showing sharp details. Thanks for showing us this beauty and all the best wishes for Christmas and the New Year. Ulla

Hi Luis,
This is my friend again and I'm happy to see him. What an amazing cat! Look at its paws; it must be a very strong cat! You caught great details, in a beautiful POV and great eye contact again. Well done!

Hi Luis,

Wonderful finale to your too short series of these bobcat photos. I love the way he is looking at you in this one and the position of the legs in mid-step. Because of you I keep looking around for one but no luck.
