I was out last night moving the sprinkler around the yard and it was a full moon April 25, 2013. I heard something flying out of the woods down my street and looked over my should to find an owl landing in the neighbors tree. We hear and see owls all the time so this was nothing new. Something walking in the shadows coming toward me about 75 yards away caught my eye as well. It stayed in the shadows of the trees but was walking up the road. I turned to get a good look at it and it stayed in the shadows making a 90 degree turn down my neighbors long drive way. I could see the broad side of it at this point. It was not a fisher cat. It was not a fox or a coyote. It was not a bob cat either. This was a cat about 4 to 5 feet long weighing about 60-70 pounds. It's tail was about 2.5 to 3 feet long and moved silently through the shadows. It was curious as to what and where I was at all times as it walked up the long drive way staying close to the tree line at all times. I know this was a mountain lion Replies:
