2021 FWF Photo Contest

Description

I was walking a trail with another photographer early one morning at a local wildlife reserve and a bobcat came out of the marsh and trotted down the trail towards us. I quickly checked my settings and then got down on one knee to get eye to eye with the cat and started snapping as many shots as I could. Eventually, the cat was only a few feet away from us, passed us and continued down the trail and eventually went back into the marsh to feed its hungry family. It probably was the most exciting wildlife experience I’ve ever had.
