There's a few fish pond owners around here that would like to borrow that cat for a while.

Looking at the shadow of the heron's neck and head on it's left wing. Color me skeptical. Although I would love to see this actually happen. I think at that point the heron would be trying to stab the hell out of that bobcat.

I was skeptic at first too but then in the article there is another pic of the cat on the bank prior to the leap so… I guess I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt.

I understand. I have a trout stream running the length of my property that a heron harassed all last summer.

I’m firing up my grill this summer.
