on October 10, 2022This curious Bobcat was half-heartedly hunting Desert Cottontails and Gambel Quail just a few yards from the Visitor Center at the Sonny Bono Salton Sea National Wildlife Refuge in California. This cat, and it's sibling, were always moving, but never in a hurry. Possibly that lackadaisical approach is the reason why I never saw them make a serious attempt at catching a meal during the few hours I watched them!
