REENIE KENNEDY SUSPENDED ANIMATION

LESLIE KIRCHNER A PRICKY PATH - BOBCAT

This hearty scavenger can be found by lakes and along the coast – and let’s not forget parking lots and the city dump! I love to watch them flip and fly as they

compete for food. Here I wanted to

isolate this bird and put it into stop-action form so we can get a good look at it.

Bobcats are quite common throughout the country. It’s not uncommon to see them out hunting or relaxing during the day. I see them quite often in my yard, and catch them on my game camera on a regular basis. I placed the bobcat in my painting with cactus in a desert scene where there is a lot of different prey for them, but maybe not so easy a meal having to work around cactus thorns, which give birds and mammals a place to hide.
