Bobcat
Lurking on fringes
At the edge of
darkness
Probing for access
Stealth in action
Seen from afar
Horses sense
presence
At property line
Seeking opportunity
Paw prints at den
Soft loamy sand
Cat tracks deceiving
Underestimating foe
fatal
Element of surprise
lost
Who hunts who now
Boundaries watched
No longer easy prey
Nocturnal half border collie half pyrenees
Vigilant bark has new meaning
Rifle kept close to protect
Any encroachment of farmstead
