Tag Archives: hunting a Brush Rabbit

As Karen Wilkinson watched, this Bobcat has spotted a Brush Rabbit.

I just looked up what a Bobcat eats the most. The answer? Rabbits. From the web: Bobcats mostly eat rabbits and hares. They may also eat rodents, such as squirrels and mice, or hunt small deer, snakes, lizards and domestic animals, such as dogs, cats, sheep, goats and poultry.

People who raise chickens here have to protect them from Bobcats, and that means overhead protection too. Just look at this Bobcat climbing the tall giraffe fence at the B Bryan Preserve in Point Arena some years ago. The photo was taken by Judy Mello.

Bobcats are year round residents of the Mendonoma Coast and they are often seen in the daylight hours here.

Thanks to Karen and Judy for allowing me to share their photos with you here.

No fog and no wind. It's warm here on the coast today. Lots of visitors are here enjoying the coast too.
