deandsusanDescription
The bobcat came back (I presume it was the same one as a week ago) -in the early afternoon so I got a better photo of it. It chased a grey squirrel up a birch tree although it went up the tree a little it was not able to catch the squirrel. after turning to look at us (we were behind our patio door) it yawned then slowly went up the hill behind the house.
