Not easy to see a lynx in the real wild, so i was really excited when i saw this one. I was driving my pick-up truck on a forest road when i saw him in front of me. He ran away to hide on the side of the bush. I got out of my truck on a rush without tripod and took some pictures squatting to stabilize my camera, and then, he disapeared. I didn’t have chance to have photo of the whole lynx, only his face, but at least it was the best end of the cat to take picture of..!

Impressive shot Jocelyn! I've only seen lynx a couple of times, from a distance, and they didn't stick around for me to get photos. Nice composition and great detail.

Very nice shot! I like it a lot! And, yes, it is the better end of the cat...
