Canadian Linx sighting
Today I saw a pair of Canadian Lynx in my backyard in Ridgefield Ct, they came very close to the house running on my deck, then down toward the marsh / norwalk river apparently hunting.. beautiful animals great to see, I did get pictures but they were distant as it took me time to get a camera, I saw them up very close when they went by my deck, and I am 100% sure they were canadian lynx.

Well I certainly believe you as I just saw one lynx in Pomfret, CT. Standing in the middle of the road, then went into woods and we watched it there for a bit before it ran off. I took two photos with a cell phone but they didn’t turn out. But definitely canadian lynx. Very cool.

How does one distinguish a small lynx from a large bobcat?

The canadian lynx and bobcat have a few distinguishing features. The tufts and tails are different. I saw a canadian lynx today which just seems completely odd. I have seen bobcat type lynx before around here and they are pretty common.

It would great if you can post the pictures , I have a couple of pictures that are very distant of my sighting and need to find a way to circle or zoom on it .

Is it possible to post a pic here in this forum? I have one photo that I circled the lynx in and I can make out the shape. A friend from Canada said she could easily make out the shape too. But still not easy to see I don’t think. Anyway…my last post on this but if anyone wants the photo please let me know.
