A bobcat with as best I can figure a domestic duck or goose??
That was my first thought as well. Cool picture for sure. I am just wondering why the bobcat is in mid air?? Do you think this was his final kill move? If so, and you captured it on film, that is all the cooler. Thanks for sharing.
 
My opinion is that it's a bobcat with a duck that has already been killed. The bobcat has the duck by the throat and is actually lifting it up as he drags it over something on the ground, not jumping downward.

Very plausible, I can see that.

That's what I saw. I've got another (not so good) pic of this bobcat with a rabbit in his mouth. He is definitely good at what he does.

May be completely wrong but it looks to me like a flying squirrel.

Dead on right. The bobcat everyone is seeing is the back of the squirrel. The duck bill is actually the edge of the squirrel's ear, and the body is the offside "wing". I'd say a flying squirrel in flight is even better than a picture of a bobcat, and a pretty good testimony for the trigger speed of your camera!
 
my first impression is a bobcat climbing a fence with a duck or goose. below the bob that white extremity looks more like a tail than a cats hind leg. gotta be a dinner table close. feathers or fur.

no matter what, thats one COOL pic !
 
Thanks for all the feedback. I found out that the neighbor is missing a duck. The bobcat is crossing a fence. I have that camera on the only low-spot on the fence. Every critter around crosses right there.
 
If you click on the picture and zoom in, you can see a wire fence the bobcat is climbing over. Also, you can make out some spots on the front portion of the rear leg. It is either a goose or maybe even a swan by the way the top of the beak curves up on the left side. There is also the makings of a wing on the bottom side between the legs.
