Bunnies here are good staying out of sight, particularly out of sight of the hawks on loiter in the sky. Then, there are coyotes and foxes. They stay out of sight too when hunting.
A psychic once told us there is a ghost of a large black dog that roams the parameters of our property. We did have a black Great Dane we took in as a rescue years ago and she is buried on the property. While I see coyotes outside the parameters of the property, I have never seen a coyote on the property, and dogs rarely come onto the property without their owners. We have lots of small animals like bunnies, skunks, squirrels, porcupine, raccoon and cats that like to hang out on the property and have no problem showing themselves. Could be the ghost dog keeps the other predators away making the smaller critters feel safer.
That is sooo sweet and cute. I love bunnies!! I’ve never seen a cottontail. It really does have a little cottontail. How do the kitties feel about the bunnies?
Thanks, Resa. Silver would bring baby bunnies into the house carrying them like they were kittens. Same with gophers and squirrels. Then I had the fun of getting them back outside. The kitties ignore the big bunnies as far as I can tell.
Aww, Silver is so adorable.
I suppose the kitties and larger bunnies are about the same size. So, it would make sense in a Mexican standoff way. (Is that politically correct to say, or has that expression gone the way of many words, these days?)
You are treading on politically correct eggshell I would say. The kitties are bigger that the cottontails, but not the Jackrabbits.
Sigh!
I saw 1 jackrabbit, once. It was in Winnipeg, and raced by my niece’s porch.
I was thrilled!!!!!!!
They are big and can really jump.
Beautiful animal!
Have you seen pictures of Jackalopes?
Hmm, sounds familiar, but I will say “no” and Google it!
Awwwwww…. and a Bunny Mon-tuesday to you, my friend!!!!! 😉 🐰
Adorable! I rescued an abandoned baby cottontail once, I had to bottle feed him for a couple of days until we got him to a wildlife sanctuary, they are so precious! 🐰
Cottontail
Off Center & Not Even 
Is he cold?
No. I don’t think so. He just hopped on to the path in front of me and sat there while I photographed him. Thanks, Gabriela.
I am glad. He is adorable 🤗
A handsome cottontail! We don’t see many rabbits here in our area.
Hi Lavinia. We have a lot of cottontails. Every now and then I’ll see a Jackrabbit, but they are few and far between anymore.
We have so many here!
Bunny paradise?
Must be 😉
We have a lot of predators about in our rural area.
We have a lot of preditors, also. But the preditors seem to stay off our property and the prey seem to congregate here.
I saw your other comment on the ghost dog. That is an interesting story.
I thought you might have have read that comment.
Perfect example of why people say cottontails are cute.
They are cute. Thanks, Maj & Sher.
Bunnies…. yay… Now that is one thing we don’t have hopping about here.
No Bunnies! Must be sad at Easter? Thanks, Shey.
We have squirrels and foxes going about here but no rabbits.
I think the dudes would love to meet up with this handsome fellow.
They might have a good time together.
They would indeed. But they also might get jealous.
A cutie 🙂
Thanks, picpholio.
My heart!
Thanks, Katie & Evee.
Cute bunny.
The camouflage is superb. He poses so nicely for the adept photographer. 🙂
Thanks, Mary Jo. They really blend in with the mulch. It was only about 15 feet from me being cute as can be.
And a cutie!
Thanks, Nancy.

I like Bunny Mon-tuesday. Thanks, Marina.

The baby bunnies the cats bring in now and then are really cute. Thanks, Tiffany.
This is a brilliant capture, Tim. The colours have that winter’s breath with shades of blue and grey with a dusting of frost.
Thanks, Rebecca. The dusk does play nicely with colors.
He is so cute😍❤️
Thanks, Victoria Rose.
I have found a bunny here !
Hi Flo. You found a bunch of bunnies there.
Thanks, Marcella. The wild bunnies don’t like to play, unfortunately.
