Earlier this week, Reserve Manager Dave Feliz took this video of a bobcat in his backyard.

Our Land Steward surprised this bobcat who was crossing the road from the Elkhorn Slough Reserve to ESF’s protected lands.

Bobcats have been seen lately around the Visitor Center and offices here at the Reserve. It seems we’re not the only ones…  Here are some photos sent in by Bonnie Pond, who lives at the North end of the slough.

Thanks Bonnie for sending these in.

What a surprise to see two bobcats – mother and cub – crossing a path on the Reserve.  One of the finest reasons to preserve land is so all creatures can find a place to live.  The Reserve is 1700 acres and the Foundation owns/manages another 3,600 acres providing some roaming room for deer, wild turkeys, coyotes, and a few bobcats.   We’d like to thank David Eddy for sharing these photos with us.
