SLS_3060DS Bobcat Kitten

The expressions of a juvenile Bobcat can be seen in this photo It was taken in my yard close to dark. The kittens leave the den when they are just about one month old, and start following the hunting female at three months old. They remain with her, learning the ways of the world until they leave at eight months ( my guess is this one weighed about 10 lbs and is about three months old). I could not get a good shot of them together, but she never took her eyes off the kitten. Thank you. Your thoughts and comments mean a lot to me; photos in southeastern Ct. most with a 5D M IV and Canon 100 to 400 II.
