Jerry Clower had a lot of funny stories. I like the one about Marcel and the beer joint.
You guys have to be getting close to the end of youtube.:flip:
Story time :hatoff:
At about 12 years of age I made my first trip to deer camp with my uncle. His cabin was rather "rustic" and I got to sleep in the loft---which was at best 3 feet clear at the peak.
I was laying toward the side and gone to sleep--with no light. During the night a bobcat went off, seemingly, standing on the roof above my head. I sat bolt upright ---at least until my forehead came into contact with the rafter above.
Trying to find my way out of that dark loft and down the ladder while trying to stop the bleeding almost made me want to go home to my mamma:maybe:
And after thousands of pictures, I finally got one of a lion after a deer - one with sharp pointy things on his head. Lose some resolution sizing them for here but ....:shrug:
Thats my house at the primary compound there in the background.
Now that's not something you see everyday! Thanks for sharing.
Excellent :clap:
The spots on the critter do not look like a mountain lion to me. Also, the tail does not seem long enough. Do you have lynx in Colorado?
Bobcat sightings have increased a lot around here in the last couple years.....
The deer and lion are both running on a little 2-track that goes diagonally across the frame. And the grass is verv deep this year. In ordinary years i get pictures of little stUff like rabbits. This might help, I am turning left onto the road. You can see the back of my german shepard a little closer to the camera than the lion was.
I have several pictures of lions at night on this camera and even a daytime bear. Deer are an everyday occurrence except for Jan/Feb. it was a matter of persistence.
I think those things you see that look like spots are grass seed heads. The lions tail is sticking up and back. I have had the good fortune of watching a lion attack and chase a bighorn sheep and you remember the tail distinctly because they are very large and apparently important to their balance. :shrug:
