Lynx at Katmai National Park 2024
This lynx was spotted at Katmai National Park not far from Brooks Lodge area. We were on a bus returning to camp from a day-long outing to the Valley of 10,000 Smokes when this beauty was encountered just sauntering along the road in front of the bus. I had the wrong lens on my 'big' camera to try to capture the lynx, so I told my husband to give me the little point & shoot I had given him to use. I was standing in the aisle, zoomed through the dirty front windshield of the bus, and trying to focus while the bus bumped and jolted along the road to get this shot. We went to Katmai to see bears, but this became one of my favorite images from the trip, partly because it was so unexpected and partly because of the way I had to shoot it. :)
