Continued Bobcat Saga

treadwl Loc: South Florida

I have had not seen the bobcats in more than a couple of weeks until Sunday evening. I followed some paw prints that looked fresh on the marsh edge and lost them in the foliage. After some time spent spotting along the edge I saw the fellow peeking through the leaves. I actually had to shoot through the leave to even get this shot. Sorry for the blur.
D300 with 200-400 vr lens with TC 1.7, tripod with sidekick, taken in very low light.
I normally don't like the tc 1.7 with the 200-400 lens, but this time it worked--sorta.

I don't know these animals. To me the way the cat is poised gives character to the shot even with the blurred leaves. Move to close, or at all, no shot.
