This is a good year for photographing lynx. Their numbers rise and fall with the rabbit population and apparently every 7 years the rabbit population explodes. I'm not sure if this is the seventh year but I've seen more lynx this year than all of last year. Two days ago I had a mother and two kittens run across the road. Here are a couple of shots.

These crazy cats decided to sit in the middle of a busy road until I figured I should scare them off. Luckily there was a rare break in the traffic.

I thought it was cute that one of the kids gave its mom a hug for Valentines Day.

Great shots! Wow, these felines have amazing snowshoe-like paws. Love the new addition - 'hug from the youngster', but my favourites are the three from the first set taken in the sunlight, and the cat hidden in the trees.

All amazing captures. Just love the sharpness in the head/eyes on second shot with the movement portrayed also.

Man ... I saw a TV show the other day called the 'Deadly 60' on these cats. They had all sorts of trouble finding one in the wild ... and failed. They should have contacted you DNP. These are amazing!
