Bobcat With A Gopher Lunch - Explore #143 Nov.3, 2009

This bobcat had just caught this gopher and was carrying it away to eat in private. I cautiously followed and he allowed me to sit and watch him eat for 8 to 10 minutes. When there was nothing left, he got up, stretched and lazily walked away.
Notice the big fat tick at the corner of his mouth.
I'm pretty sure this is the same bobcat photographed by DocentJoyce here:
