Today, I’m sharing a close-up of a young Eastern Cottontail rabbit that I took a couple of days ago while sitting as low to the ground as I could possibly get.

I can’t believe I’ve only shared three Eastern Cottontail rabbit photos until today. I’ve taken hundreds of photos of these rabbits, and I honestly don’t know why I haven’t shared more images of them here. I guess I was more focused on other subjects?

Anyhow, when I saw this young rabbit, I knew the only way to get the low-angle perspective I wanted was to lay down on the deck and shoot through the slats of the railing. That’s exactly what I did.

I should mention that this young rabbit is very used to humans; otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to get as close as I did.

I’ve already edited more Eastern Cottontail rabbit images I took throughout the spring and summer, which I haven’t yet shared in my galleries. It’s almost fall.

I guess I’d better hop to it!🐰

Life is good.
