[font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Today was the first day of another two day central California bobcat safari, with folks from Canada, Alabama, and California. It was a long day of looking but around noon we were rewarded by this log walking bobcat doing some claw sharpening. Animals doing animal stuff, I love it. [/font]

[font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I would like to thank all the Naturescapes community, and especially many of you who have come on the bobcat safaris ... it never gets old.  Thanks.[/font]

Very well timed pose Brent.... love the way the moss on the log stand out... makes for a very interesting colour combination.

Nice behavior image. Good color.

Great pose, almost playful, and beautiful detail.
(Small nit pick would be to get rid of the bright speck on the twig RU corner. One's eye does go there.)
