Flushed while driving along access road. Only picture I could get.
Uh, wow. In my driveway.
Jaguar photographed on nearby trail camera about the same time.
3 mountain lions - mother and 2 subadults detected during a graduate research project at Point Lobos State Natural Reserve. All 3 were heading north on Moss Cove Trail, which is closed to the public for restoration.

Basking in the sun just next to one of the busy trails here.
I was reading plants for CPP when this I heard this bobcat in the grass behind me, 2-3m away. The picture crouched in the grass was taken then. I left immediately. An hour later I went back to finish what I was doing, and the same cat was less than 1m from the trail, and growled and hissed as I approached, so I backed away, taking the standing shot then.
Knife is about 3.5 inches long.
More stills from Toogee Sielsch. Super cool to see this mutualism in Tahoe!

Two bobcats were behind the building where I store my boat. I only saw one at first, then it started walking straight towards me. I jumped in the truck to be able to use it to stabilize my camera since the lighting was poor as the sun was setting. After the first turned around, the second appeared. Eventually, both quietly headed into the woods.
Found by myself and a good personal friend while out on a night cruise to photograph
Big adult, and very early in the year for it to be active. First one I've seen in almost two years!
Under stepping tracks, as it cautiously moves over the mud to get a drink at the flash flood.
Lion hung out (sitting/walking/lying) for about 1 hour. Caught on game cam.
In the last photo that cat lay down in the road.

26 FEB 2021 ANZA BORREGO DESERT: On our quarterly transect of the Narrows - while investigating woodrat nests - the Anza Borrego Desert Tracking Team came across what appeared at first blush to be a very large bobcat latrine under rip rap supporting the steep bank of Highway 78. The scats were all on the small side for bobcat - approximately 3/8 - 1/2" diameter - and not well segmented. A few were connected in typical tootsie-roll lengths but many were not. None of the team had ever seen anything like this before. We find lots of bobcat scat in the Narrows, much of it in latrines, but nothing under a rip rap wall in such a volume, and none of it this small.
I put a cam on the "scat cave" on 26 February and retrieved the
SD Card 14 March 2021. Seven animals appeared. Most notable was a Ringtail 26 Feb just a few hours after I departed. The scat matches Mark Elbroch's and James Lowery's descriptions for Ringtail.
Other images captured were of a Rock Wren, Black-throated Sparrow, Bryant's Woodrat, Merriam's K-rat, Peromyscus, Antelope Ground Squirrel and a Desert Cottontail.
