Let me share one of the best experiences of my entire life with you.

In this video, I come face to face with a big wild cat and it's everything I hoped it would be.
I show you the entire encounter from start to finish and even the exact moment when I capture the shot I waited for so patiently.
The question is, am I making friends with a lynx or a bobcat? One thing I can tell you is that no kebabs were harmed during this encounter.
Things go well and we're getting along great until I try to read a couple of pages of 'Chasing Awe With Gavin Hardcastle' to this potentially dangerous predator. She clearly prefers fiction or perhaps self-help books. Whatever her preference, I'm left looking like a fool.
Will Amanda buy me that 800mm lens for my birthday? Will I put my foot in a hunters snare and what's got this big cat so spooked when it looks over my shoulder?
There's really only one way to find out.
