While visiting the Oklahoma City Zoo yesterday, I stopped by the Bobcat's enclosure in what the zoo calls the "Cat Forest". I had a Bobcat on one side, an Ocelot across the way, and a Fishing Cat nearby. I was watching all three for interesting behavior when the Bobcat, who had been quietly walking around his enclosure suddenly ran to the back behind a hill and crouched down. Then he burst over the hill at full speed and headed my way. I'm not sure if he just wanted to show off or to play. Or maybe he had a more sinister intent.

What a sight to see.
Very well captured

Nice shot!

Beautifully captured there! That first shot really displays the grace and precision they have to have in order to move the way they do.
