The hiding game

A friend happened to notice this little Nuttall's Cottontail on Saturday, when several of us drove north east of the city to Alberta's wonderful Badland area. We spent the day botanizing Horseshoe Canyon and this little rabbit was at the canyon bottom, tucked into a "cave" caused by erosion of the hillside. I think perhaps he felt that we couldn't see him? : ) I've only ever seen one of the Rabbits maybe three or four times before, so this was a real treat. Thanks, Susan!
