This alliteration title is for my father (who helped craft it). I was able to get within five feet of this cottontail to get this shot at Green Spring Gardens.
Here are some facts I gleaned from www.bunnyhugga.com:
• Rabbits can’t see directly in front of their nose but can see behind them (to keep an eye out for danger approaching)
• Rabbits can sleep with their eyes open (a useful trick but disconcerting for us!)
• Rabbits noses twitch 20 to 120 times per minute (faster when excited or stressed and slower when relaxed or sleeping)
