Jack Rabbit
I would sneak up on this rabbit in Texas on the ranch and take a few pictures before it would run away. Sneak up on it again . . . . it happened multiple times!! Happy Wordless Wednesday!!
Showing its black-tail as it hops away!
I love its super long ears!
The last picture before it disappeared on me!!

Welcome to the mon@rch nature blog and I hope you join us in some of our nature adventures through the Allegany State Park area!
I am a naturalist, field biologist and nature photographer from the Western New York area. I have started exploring nature writing through this blog and it truly has been fun sharing my numerous adventures with everyone. Thanks to the many other authors that help me with my post and they will be sharing some of their nature explorations.
I have always had a latent interest in birds and photography and have been lucky enough to find time to explore these interests over the last few years. I am very thankful to the Cattaraugus County Bird Club for getting me started, sharing their wealth of knowledge and for their wonderful programs. And many thanks to Tom for letting me share some of my adventures and photos on the Monarch Nature Blog.
Thank you for taking the time visiting and commenting on this blog.

See any jackalopes? We saw several on a trip to Kansas years ago, but oddly enough they were all in bars….

I have never been able to get this close to one. Love the photos. I am glad none of these huge brutes have access to my garden.

I have these jack rabbits sneak up on my quail blocks in the morning and nibble away to their heart’s content!

Thanks for stopping by my blog today. I found that frog post/video you mentioned and inserted it into my post. I hope you don’t mind, but it was so great! Thanks for the heads-up and for sharing. I am enjoying your TX adventure immensely. I’m “half-Texan” and absolutely love it there. I’m glad you had the opportunity to experience and share such an adventure. ~karen

So much more slender and streamlined than the rabbits we have up north! Well, that’s evolution for ya.

I didn’t know they had those dark patches at the tips of their ears. I hope you’re having a nice trip, glad you brought your camera.

Is it really a rabbit? it looks like a hare. Great photo as long as I don’t see one in my garden.

Love the photos! I’ve seen one or two in the countryside around London but never close enough to get a decent picture of one.
