And this is a great bunny pic!

We have tons of these guys around here, and I love the little rascals. It's very common to encounter one if I happen to step outside around dusk, which seems to be one of their favorite times to come out of their burrows. (I imagine they're out early in the morning, too, but I'm too much of a night owl to be outside to see them then. )
