Hi everyone, Just wanted to share this picture of a bobcat visiting our backyard this afternoon. In other wildlife news, someone walking down Greenlee yesterday evening told me they had just seen a deer on Tucson Blvd. Not just a deer, but a buck. They reported it to Game and Fish.

These bobcat kittens were playing on New Year's Day. Mom kept at a distance,
then collected her babies and crossed Olsen heading west.

We were eating an early dinner on our patio when we were visited by a mama bobcat and her 2 cubs.
After a while, they moved on through the neighbor's yard toward Wilson.

This afternoon we watched 3 Harris hawks share a meal of a rabbit in our driveway. The 2 photos are are a juvenile hawk, and an adult with the rabbit. Two hawks kept watch while
the third fed on the rabbit. They took turns keeping watch and feeding on the rabbit. It's thirlling to see a healthy family of Haris hawks in our neighborhood.

I was trimming my cholla and saw this snake. I felt sorry for him; he looked stuck on the thorns. Then he started to move and crawled up the cactus
towards a nest of bird eggs. Those eggs didn't have a chance.

A small bobcat visited our yard today. It relaxed on the wall before moving on, and I
managed to get a few pictures with a long lens.

About 7:30 am our dog alerted us to something in the front yard. It was a young bobcat checking out the neighbor's chickens.
Love the wildlife in our neighborhood.

A male bobcat on our patio a few days ago. It was thrilling to see him linger to drink from our fountain.

Trimming the traffic circle at Greenlee & Jackson. Spring 2012
There were two bobcats; a big one (male?) chased a small one (female?) up our mulberry. The little one screamed & howled & sounded pitiful.
I chased the big one away, but he came back and kept the little one treed for about 3 hours.
He went up, and then they both disappeared.
I don't know if the big
one wanted to eat or mate with the little one. The little one wasn't cooperating.

We found this little critter under a piece of cardboard in our yard. Quite small, about 12 inches long & and only as thick as a pen. We think it had recently hatched.
After identifying it as a desert kingsnake - a good neighbor that can kill rattlesnakes - we released it into our aloe vera patch where it will have planty of lizards to eat.
