This lovely little rabbit was found on Easter Sunday which was a repeat of last year when I found two rabbits in the same area (not far from home). I watched this one pulling up grass in bundles, carrying it, and then pushing it down into a (presumed) den. After that exertion, the rabbit hopped over to a tree and spent time grooming and then went to sleep.
I managed to capture the grooming session on video. It is quite cute to watch as it washes its face like a cat and even seems to clean its teeth. It is one minute long and you may want to mute the sound to avoid wind noises and some background human voices.

Lovely picture and video. xx
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Flighty. :-)
DeleteGreat photo and video Doris. The rabbit looks so calm yet he must have known you were closeby.
ReplyDeleteThanks Didee! Yes, he or she was about 15 feet away and stayed very calm.
DeleteHer/his washing up was most thorough. Cute!
