Bunnies at the Shellpot Creek

This bunny rabbit is really the first I have seen around my corner of the Shellpot Creek. I was surprised that I hadn't seen any, perhaps the season is starting. I have followed my habit of trying to have photographic confirmation of each animal sighting since that is slightly more interesting and scientific than an "I saw that". This sighting is from pretty far away since my nature tracking skills and ability to keep quiet and not startle the animal are of the bull in a china shop variety, yet the telephoto lens on the digital camera is not made for the distance.
