Margay Cat Leaping Between Branches Night Ridge in on a wind-scoured ridge near Lagos

Margay Cat Leaping Between Branches Night Ridge

by Jimmie Delaney

A sharp beam of white light cuts through the deep night, illuminating a margay cat suspended in mid-air between gnarled branches. The feline's spotted coat glows against the dark, wind-scoured ridge near Lagos, its muscles coiled for the next landing. Dry, brittle leaves rest on the skeletal trees, stripped bare by the season's lack of rain. The light sweeps across the rough bark, revealing texture and depth while the surrounding forest fades into absolute black. A dark, jagged branch frames the left side of the view, creating a natural border around the leaping predator. The animal's paws extend toward a lower limb, capturing a split second of motion frozen in the beam.
