Utah Bob #35998 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Wife looked out the window at the pond yesterday and whispered to me..."stinks". "Huh?" I said, thinking I had the pond water in pretty good shape all things considered. She gave me "that look" and pointed out the window. There coming down to get a drink was a beautiful Lynx. Of course by the time I got the camera he had melted into the underbrush. A rare sighting and a great moment. Made my day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowhouse Sam # 25171 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Woulda made my day too Bob. Somehow the camera is never around here either...the Iphone cam is pretty good but not at distance. Wonder if you can lure him in with Meow Mix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if you can lure him in with Meow Mix? I missed the shot by about 2 seconds. The pond is the only water source nearby so I'm hoping he comes back. I don't think the cat chow will work but I do have a bumper crop of cottontails this year so... Seen bobcats and cougars here before but this is the first lynx.
