Don't you just love those ears. I downloaded Cooliris and wow what a program. Thanks for the tip Judy. I'm glad that your little bunny let you get these pictures of her/him. They are great.

@Marion: It was fun to get the bunny shots while I could.
I'm thrilled you tried that Cooliris program ... if I want to see someone's portfolio, I just go to their previous day's image (upper left) and click on the arrow. Zoommmmmmmm, there they all are!

Look at peters long ears don't you just love those blood vessels

@jamesy: Yes, I did love "those blood vessels." I was so happy it was patient with me!
Michael Skorulski from Cigel, Slovakia
Fabulous detail in the ears, Judy. what a great image.

@Michael Skorulski: Thanks, Michael, however the previous two days are probably better shots.
Marie-Hélène Ammor from Casablanca/Paris, Morocco
Superb ! S/ He(it) turns back but watches all the same !

@Marie-Hélène Ammor: I know.........that big eye never left me, as I slowly backed away.
Betty from New Jersey, United States
Those ears are just so cute! Is this a small bunny? She looks tiny compared to the blades of grass. I love this pose, great capture!

@Betty: Thank you, Betty. My shots don't compare to your BEARS, but the bunny was fun to see!
@MJ: Thanks, MJ ... so do I.
@Lorraine: Well, she was a little spooked, so when she stood and turned, I snapped one more time and then took deliberate steps backward. Twenty minutes later Mike looked out the back door and she was back beneath the Crape Myrtle! ;D
Jeff from Pembroke Dock, United Kingdom
Ok I said i'm sorry about about the p-- crack, go on turn round and give us a smile.
3 Sep 2008 1:39pm
@Jeff: *Smile* ... When she felt I was a bit too close, she stood and turned, still watching me very closely. Twenty minutes later, she was back beneath the bush.
@sandrine: Thanks again!
Alun Lambert from cheshire, United Kingdom
cracking shot, you can see the veins in his ears
3 Sep 2008 4:57pm
@Alun Lambert: Yes, the blood vessels stood out with the light behind them. I'm tickled that you have three in your family on AM3 now. You dad seems to have a wonderful sense of humor (or humour), whichever you prefer! <grin>
Observing from West Cheshire, United Kingdom
Well if he came back, I guess he approves of you. Love those paper thin ears, excellent shot Judy.
3 Sep 2008 9:50pm
@Observing: Thanks, Mike ....... I was pleased that I hadn't scared it away for good with my camera! ;D
MaryB from Staffordshire, United Kingdom
Oh! he's too cute for words, still loooove those big ears of his, a wonderful shot Judy :)
4 Sep 2008 12:44am
@MaryB: Thanks, Mary ......... I loved those ears also! ;D
Fliss from Melbourne Beach, United States
What a great shot... love it...
Hope you do make it over this way...
Fingers crossed all storms go away...
4 Sep 2008 2:33am
@Fliss: Thanks ... and you're right; we're hoping the storms go elsewhere!
Barbara from Florida, United States
Both of you were patient for this series of shots. Very trusting rabbit. Interesting detail and clarity in those ears. I like the angle showing the eye too. Nice shot Judy.
4 Sep 2008 3:00am
@Barbara: The first two were taken within one minute, but this last one, was taken 30 minutes later when we checked to see if it was still out there. I keep watching for it. ;D
@bisha: Thank you, Bisha! ;D
Betsy Barron from Glenmoore, United States
wow! I love the veiny detail in the ears - I don't think I've ever been close enough to see that! thanks! (My kids got to inspect this as well and said "what are those squiggly lines on it's ears?) thanks!
4 Sep 2008 1:33pm
@Betsy Barron: Thank you for this comment, Betsy, and I'm happy your children got to see those miraculous blood vessels. It's always a privilege to teach children something they didn't know or hadn't seen.
@Morgane: Thank you very much!
Magda from Vancouver, Canada
My daughter Tara is obsessed with rabbits so we keep coming back to those three photos of your visitor bunny and watch it in detail! lol
Nice capture!
5 Sep 2008 1:18am
@Magda: Thanks, Magda; I'm glad Tara likes our little friend - I do too! I really couldn't believe s/he let me get as close as I did, but I was very, v-e-r-y careful as I moved slowly closer.
Jean-Michel from Brussels, Belgium
