Loggers at work,
The dogs did not see the bobcat I saw during our morning tromp.

No snack for a displaced cat.

ReplyDeleteI am sooo grateful we don't have 'critters' like that to frighten our dogs. We have the odd dog or two that attacks another, but a bobcat...

Glad you avoided a duel. Great entry.
