We saw our first Bobcat at Aransas Wildlife Refuge. It was using the pedestrian crossing near the entry gate. We were leaving and I had just put my camera away. It sauntered across the road as relaxed as could be, gave us a glance, and disappeared into the brush. It was close enough to see the short tail and tufted ears. Made my day.

An Otter came up on the road near a water channel, stopped, then turned around and returned to the water. I got a photo of it's head above water from the back, but it wasn't really recognizable. Our first wild Otter siting.
