SHH! Did you hear something?

This bunny has been in a nasty fight (look at its ear) so I'm surprised it didn't take off the minute our car slowed down a few metres from it. Perhaps the wascally wabbit felt safe because I was INSIDE the car leaning out the window on the passenger side. And maybe it would have taken off if I'd opened the door and stepped out. AH! But I didn't!

Poor bunny...but he is so beautiful. I love bunnies, but my cats tend to discourage them.

We have a huge population of wild bunnies this year, seems to be a 5 year cycle. Good catch. MB

Beautiful shot of the rabbit! There are a couple that hang out in my mother's yard in LA. You can get fairly close while they just sit there and watch you. Then all of a sudden they will take off.

True, cars are fabulous places to watch birds and animals, but indeed don't open your door, not even one centimeter.

I had to stop once to get out of the car and pick up a frightened rabbit frommthe road and put in safety. He was fit enough physically.

Jules said...

Gosh he, or she's(?) a real cutie!
And I have a question about your Sky Watch shot. Did you take the picture off of Davis Drive? I know there's a fabulous blue barn that I keep wanting to stop and photograph when I'm up that way, and I thought maybe that barn was on the same road?

Jane Hards Photography said...

That is a spectacular catch. Wonderful detail.

Roan said...

Cute bunny. I think he heard a "putty tat".

Jules,
The stable is located on Highway 9 in King Township. Highway 9 in Newmarket is Davis Drive, but I don't know if it's called Davis Drive in King. ;-)

Misty DawnS said...

Awwww - he's adorable, even if his ear has war wounds. I love bunnies, they are so cute and inquisitive.

Rune Eide said...

My youngest daughter would have loved that one!

Great catch.

Reader Wil said...

It certainly is a great shot! Did you also read "Watership Down" by Richard Adams? Then you can say that rabbits do fight fiercely.

I'm chuckling because it looks like my Buddy Cat's ears! I'm hoping it never hurts too much when they get those ears notched. That is one stupendous photograph!

Darla said...

He is so cute. He looks pretty healthy other than those ear notches. Do you think perhaps they happened some time ago?

What a great capture!
They sit still for a little while and then if you get too close - hoppity hoppity they go.
Glad you stayed in the car - this is wonderful.
