Florida Bobcat (Page 2): GatorGirl, great series. I see where you are from and I used to hunt in that area and realize how much wildlife around the area. Thanks for sharing this...

The Florida wild bobcat, or Felidae rufus Floridanus, is immediately identifiable by its short tail (or bob) and the fringes of fur that outline the sides of its head. It weighs between 13 and 30 pounds and has a tail with white on its underside and black markings on its top side. It is always exciting to get to see one!

Gatorgirl, your shots are great, action, and detail. I hope by now the bite marks have healed!

I downloaded @ 2 and jacked the exposure and all the detail is there... altho I could not determine if what I saw on the cats right ear was a tick or flea.

In #1 you did a good job of catching the cat levitating with your 1/2500 sec exposure. Kudos Gatergirl

Good choice of settings:
NIKON D7100 Lens: 200.0-500.0 mm f/5.6
Focal Length: 440mm (35mm equivalent: 660mm) Aperture: ƒ/5.6
Exposure Time: 0.0004 s (1/2500) @ ISO equiv: 1000
Metering Mode: Matrix Exposure: aperture priority (semi-auto)
Software: Adobe Photoshop Elements 15.0 (Windows) .... so use this to jack up the brightness.

Excellent shots. The last bobcat I saw was in Vermont and was very much on the larger size.
