Wabbit

On June 18, 2015June 18, 2015 By Mike and Christy

Spring time is Rabbit time. Last weekend we saw plenty of healthy rabbits roaming the sagebrush and grasslands of the Arapahoe Wildlife Refuge as well as plenty of Hawks looking for an easy meal. Luckily for this guy he stayed on guard and was reluctant to stray too far from the cover of the sage.

So pretty! I like the the dark undercoat of his fir, his thick eye lashes, and the way you captured the sun on his ears.

  Hi and thanks, it is amazing to be able to see the veins in this guys ears through the sun. Big cooling units for the hot day ahead. Have a great weekend.

Beautiful!!! Perfect. Hard to get. It seems like he/she sees you, yet stayed still long enough to set up the shot. Wow. Love the light behind the ears.
