You know me and the wildlife.
Yesterday on my walk ten minutes from my front door - this is what I saw ten feet from me:
(not my image, but this is exactly his/her pose and expression before s/he disappeared into the brush. The image is from PAWS, a local wildlife rescue.)
Big.
Kinda don't want to walk today...
...not huge, but about 30ish pounds. Three times the size of my 10 pound housecat. It's a Bobcat...and sure it's been here all along - I just didn't know it.
I live in the city.
