Last year my neighbor was up a ladder trimming his Sylvester Palm and he saw two eyes starring back at him, at first he thought it was Palm Rat. He then realized the eyes were too far apart, it was a Bobcat who probably was in the tree looking for a rat. The Bobcat came down and passed him on the way. He got off the ladder and then realized the Bobcat was cornered by the villa wall, there was no way out unless it ran by my neighbor. Then in one swift move the Bobcat scaled the wall and was gone.
