I see coyotes occasionally but have only seen two bobcats. They are very beautiful and very frightening at the same time. I imagine I would feel the same about seeing a monitor lizard!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07899318999574055763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7219763774238571564.post-88167477658190572422020-01-17T04:55:12.188-08:002020-01-17T04:55:12.188-08:00Re-coucou Susan,

J'adore celle où le cavalier se retrouve au sol. Le mouvement, l'atmosphère me plonge dans la réalité du moment et la fixe, j'adore la spontanéité de ton coup de pinceau...<br />Le lynx est aussi superbe... Cela doit être très surprenant que d'en apercevoir un en vrai ! <br />Un jour au Sénégal, j'avais été très interloquée et effrayée de voir un varan qui traversait le jardin.<br />Je pense que pour moi tout animal que je n'ai pas l'habitude de voir m'interpelle !<br />Très joli billet... je te souhaite une belle fin de semaine.<br /><br />Gros bisousmartinealisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04055152925986659065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7219763774238571564.post-72516291801113457552020-01-16T14:20:29.269-08:002020-01-16T14:20:29.269-08:00Hi, Julie- so glad you enjoy my title.

I have been fascinated with steeplechase jump racing for a long time - always marveling at the connection between the large powerful beast and the jockey.

Yes, the bobcat was scary to see so close and I was happy to be safe inside my house. I once saw a video of a bobcat in a fight and it was ferocious!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07899318999574055763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7219763774238571564.post-42841819657721557662020-01-15T14:05:56.677-08:002020-01-15T14:05:56.677-08:00Fundamental Limit to Precision - great title!

I am in awe of the action in the painting and I only know Steeplechase racing through Dick Frances, but it sure seems to fit! <br /><br />Mt Vernon was a trip down memory lane.
