Cougar or Lynx?

Cougar

  Three nights ago-No, it was actually 4 or 5 in the morning, my husband heard

an animal on the roof. When I was in the loft later in the day I noticed cat prints

in the snow on the roof of the lower level of our cabin. We went out to look for tracks

around the house and found that it had jumped from the back porch railing up on to

our tin roof.

Lynx

Later, while taking our walk, we ran into a neighbor that lives a couple of miles

down the road. He mentioned he had seen a mother cougar with three kits in the

driveway next to ours where no one lives, of course. Because we have no close

neighbors.

However, I'm not convinced it's a cougar. I think it may be a lynx. Since then the

snow has melted so I am now anxiously waiting for tomorrows predicted dump.

Then I will take photos, if it's still around, of the prints and you can help me figure

out which it is-cougar or lynx. I had found prints on line to compare, but by that

time the snow had melted them or the sun had dis-figured them.

On another note: I want to introduce a new blogger. Beverly's blog is DanNy Boy Quilts.

She left a comment and offered to pray for Elijah, as so many of you dear ladies have.

But Beverly has a very touching story to share. So if you can spare a minute, please

drop by and welcome her to blog land.



I leave you with tonight's completely untouched sunset.

Blessings, Kimberly
