Post a "lucky shot" photo. Something that happened beyond your control

but that you caught on your cell phone:

Just happened to be in my dad's room in the nursing home last year when a cell phone tornado alarm went off. I looked outside and saw a different tornado it turns out. It is just below the cloud line. Nobody was seriously injured.

It's a Bobcat about 15' behind my house... chubby little thing, apparently feasting on the Rabbits on my land. I'd gone upstairs to open the window and it was creeping out from the underbrush. I got the camera and managed 2 shots... this is the better one. Damn, I love living out in the country!

The closest I've come recently was on my visit to the cemetery this week. There are quite a few geese that hang around the pond on the property, sometimes I see them - but this time they were not only within view, but a pair of them were surrounded by the cutest fuzzy goslings! Nothing spectacular, but they made me smile...
