Info from Licensor: "I pulled up the blind over the window in the front door and found myself staring into the eyes of a large wild cat. We stared into each other's eyes for about 3 minutes. I thought it might be a bobcat but I wasn't sure. I saw the animal's muscles tense and started filming with my iPhone as it began to 'unfold' from the crouched position. I realized it wasn't a bobcat as it was larger than that and had a long tail. What a beautiful animal! I was mesmerized! As it moved slowly towards an alley and I was filming, we continued to look at each other. It stopped briefly at one point, before it disappeared around the corner, and stared right at me!"
