Jackrabbits can be formidable beasts. This one seems to be doing its best to display its impressive physique, like a dog at Westminster. When running, they almost look like mini antelopes bounding through the desert. Nikon D800 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 400mm) ISO 800, f/4 at 1/500th of a second
Wow! This guy looks so different from the “Peter Cottontails” I see around here all the time. I assume they are at least cousins. But this jackrabbit looks much more like a speed demon than do our cute chubby cottontails. And for some reason, even though I have seen many coyotes this summer, the bunnies have survived, thank goodness.

Love this image Sean!
In hardscrabble land
Of dry foliage dust and sand
Sinew ready to go .
