			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>During both of two visits to Tres Rios Wetlands in Phoenix I ran into Jeff Ritz wandering the area with his camera, ever alert for wildlife. In our second meeting he showed me a photo of one of Tres Rios&#8217; bobcats and agreed to let me publish these three photos.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/vaiboy/4035684396/in/set-72157622641499112/"><img alt="" src="http://www.saltriverexplorer.com/blog/post_images/bobcat_1.jpg" title="Bobcat" class="aligncenter" width="333" height="500" /></a></p>
<p>When he granted permission to publish the photos, Jeff told me, &#8220;I really love that place and it is such a shame that so few people have heard of it.&#8221; </p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/vaiboy/4035682118/in/set-72157622641499112/"><img alt="" src="http://www.saltriverexplorer.com/blog/post_images/bobcat_2.jpg" title="Bobcat" class="aligncenter" width="333" height="500" /></a></p>
<p>The photo below is the one Jeff showed me when we met. A bobcat with dinner!</p>

<p>The bobcats are the darlings of Tres Rios, but the wetlands is home to other &#8220;wild things&#8221; as well. Be sure to look at Jeff&#8217;s Tres Rios photostream <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/vaiboy/collections/72157618249027789/">HERE</a>. I particularly like his photos of dragonflies <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/vaiboy/sets/72157621091952662/">HERE</a>.</p>
<p>Find more about bobcats <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bobcat">HERE</a>. Also see my previous post about Tres Rios <a href="http://saltriverexplorer.com/blog/?p=303">HERE</a>.</p>
<p>Thanks Jeff!</p>
