Those are great pictures. I'd love to see one that candid around here. All I get are damned coyotes and hogs. Quoted:
Great pics. Bobcats are a bunch of hurt in a small cuddly looking package. This. I can testify that getting drunk and trying to catch one in a burlap sack is a bad idea. VERY, very bad idea. Those bastards can get downright grumpy. I've met OSHA inspectors with a better sense of humor. I'm sure you would also get grumpy if some drunk asshole was trying to put a bag over your head.  Hey, I never said the cat was being unreasonable!   
To funny! Cute kitty! |

Awesome pics people.
Here's my contribution. I was calling coyotes a few years ago and this one came in and sat at my feet. One yard away. He got a little nervous as I fished my camera out and the pic was taken at about 6 feet. 
I tried to get a pic with my foot in it to show how close he was, but he got a little skittish. I took these as he left. 
A few more over the years:
