Mountain Cottontail on a snow driftA Mountain Cottontail on a snow drift – Nikon D810, f8, 1/2000, ISO 640, +0.7 EV, Nikkor 500mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light

Just a simple image today of a resting Mountain Cottontail on a snow drift taken on Antelope Island State Park near the park headquarters. I do wish that I didn’t have man made objects in the background on the right side of the frame, it would have been wonderful if the snow had drifted over the pile of wood and branches.

I’m getting cabin fever due to not being out in the field, the gray skies and icky weather are keeping me indoors and the forecast for the next few days doesn’t look good for photo opportunities but we need the snow to fill our reservoirs so I am trying not to complain, much. I am looking forward to brighter days.

Life is good.
