Bobcat?

I saw this guy walking straight towards me and thought it was a young mountain lion. Then he turned and I noticed the stubby tail. He walked into the weeds and a few seconds later I saw his head pop up and was swatting at something with his paw while jumping back. I'm guessing it was a snake of some sort. He walked up the embankment and disappeared.

Crappy, zoomed in pics from cell video but that's all I had.
