Look what my parents found in their backyard this morning.
My parents emailed me this picture they took from inside their home. A big cat! 
Bob Cat I suppose.

Bobcat!
We have them near our house too. They are fairly common, but you rarely see them, because they don't usually want to be seen.
Occasionally, we see their tracks in the mud in our local parks.

Wow! Beautiful cat, can't imagine one that close. We apparently have a black bear in our neighborhood this summer.

Wow! That would be a real thrill for me, but I hope they don't have a wandering house cat.

Gorgeous animal. I've yet to see one (outside of a zoo).
