I've been getting quite a few daylight bobcat pictures this year as well.

Great pic by the way.

Great pic. Had one run across road in front of me this morning at 10:30 while checking cams. First late morning sighting I can ever remember.
 
Are you serious?! I've always wanted one as a pet but I've heard horror stories about how much damage than can do when they are being "playful."

Did somebody say bobcat? This is my 30 pound deer and chicken eatin' cat. They make excellent pets but they aren't fluffy the house cat

Seriously, 'excellent pets'??? I had no idea they could be tamed. Perhaps tolerate you to the point where they don't want to rip your head off, but that would be about the extent I thought you could domesticate them.

I've seen Youtube videos of people in Russia who have bobcats and even Lynx as pets. But again, they warn viewers these are not easy animals to deal with. Some even post pictures of their many trips to the ER for stitches.
 
Rather dark one. Angle may make it look a little darker. Some friends swear it's a dog but I beg to differ. I constantly get bobcat pics here

A guy a friend knows got ahold of a bobcat kitten a few weeks ago and was trying to give it away.
I can't remember why he wanted to but said it was tame as any housecat he had ever seen.

If it wasn't illegal in TN I would have taken it in a heartbeat.

I take several in traps and i have turned a few loose. Excellent pet material would be the very last way i would describe a bobcat.
 
Last year I got a picture of the biggest bobcat I've ever seen....then the prettiest bobcat I've ever seen....same camera..... beutiful animals.
