One of the many Jackrabbits that come into the yard almost every day , but I don't just wait for them, other things to do. I was standing outside on the back deck and he sure was watching me closely & was only around 3meters/10ft away.

Jackrabbits The word jackrabbit comes from a book by Mark Twain, in which he describes the creature as a jackass rabbit, on account of the hare's ears looking as though they belonged to a donkey. Later on this term was shortened to jackrabbit.

Captured this Tuesday (2019, 05-24). Thanks for coming by and comments most welcomed.

Have a wonderful day, ♥ Skates ♥

I love Jackrabbit. My uncle used to live in Kansas and they were thick. I suppose, like everything else, they are endangered by now.
Wonderful photo.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

It's posing like a professional, Pat.

Undoubtedly it has heard about your photographic skills. A once in a lifetime opportunity for it to become world famous, 😄 !

Wonderful and cute 'portrait', my friend.

I remember running across them on our Northern Plains as a boy, out deer hunting. They'd take off and at the time I hadn't seen anything quite that fast. Just a brown whoosh between leaps.
