Observations about these pictures. This set offers an interesting variety of the wild bunnies, which are more prevalent in the neighborhood now than in any previous year I've lived here.  The standing bunny in 9229D had been quietly eating, when something stopped it cold. The bunny sat up and didn't move for more than 15 seconds.

4460D and 4481D show two bunnies.  The little one had sneaked up behind some stairs, then came out in the open.  I expected the larger bunny to run off the little one as I'd witnessed a couple of days earlier.  Instead the little bunny charged and got chased away again.

8045A gives more perspective on the size of the bunnies.  This guy fled into the drainpipes, when threatened, then turned around inside and came out face-first.

 

9229D

Something that must have been worth watching got the bunny's attention. The bunny stood like this for so long, that I finally turned to see if the bear was returning.

4460D

Having been run out of the territory a couple of days earlier, the new bunny sneaks toward the bunny-in-charge of the north end of the yard.

4481D

Trouble in the making. The little bunny charged triggering a rather wild melee between the two bunnies.

7655A

This tiny bunny, about the size of my fist, had a favorite pair of rocks and sat on them part of about every day for nearly 6 weeks.

4262D

Bunny bath time. Active bunnies spend quite a bit of time preening and cleaning up their fur.

8045A

The little bunny liked the drain pipes for protection. The one that drained the driveway proved to be a routine passage between the driveway and the yard below.

9141A

Bunnies routinely chew off four or five blades of grass at the base, then sit and slowly suck them in.

7824D

The close-ups give nice details, but they make little bunnies look big. This perspective show one as a little bunny in a big world.

2733D

This shot shows nice detail of a laconic little bunny in the grass.

5020D

Another bunny-bath shot, it wets its forepaws to better wash its face.
