Happy-go-Lucky

While bobcats are apex predators, they prefer to keep their distance from humans and hunt rodents, birds, and other small wildlife. This handsome Bobcat paused a bit while he was passing my lens, as if posing for me. That made my day! His facial expression reminds me of the phrase: Happy-go-lucky!
