The 2018 Audubon Photography Awards: Top 100

https://www.audubon.org/magazine/summer-2018/the-2018-audubon-photography-awards-top-100?ms=digital-eng-email-ea-newsletter-20180723_wingspan_medium&utm_source=ea&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20180723_wingspan&utm_content=medium


Category: Professional
Photographer: Cindy Goeddel
Species: Mallard and bobcat
Location: Yellowstone National Park
Story Behind the Shot: Goeddel huddled in a snow pit for nearly five hours on a zero-degree day to get this dramatic photo. When a bobcat spotted a drake Mallard downstream, it used a bison trail through the deep snow to stalk unseen along the Madison River to within striking distance. For nine interminable minutes the predator watched the duck swimming in circles, seemingly waiting for the right moment to make its move. Finally, when the Mallard's head was down, the cat leapt. After nearly a minute-long struggle in the water, the bobcat carried away its prey.
