A RARE SIGHTING




We spotted this beauty when we were last up to Hinkler.  The shots are not that clear because we had to use the zoom on the camera and it is a bit tricky to get good shots from so far away but you can make out what it is.  A beautiful Canadian Lynx.  And a big one at that.  We saw a female and her kitten years ago and even heard their growls.  This one was alone as far as we could tell so it was probably a male.  So in all the years I have been up here and all the times I have been in the bush, this is only the third one I have seen.  And since they usually hunt at night, it was indeed a rare and beautiful sighting that I won't soon forget.
