Peek a Boo Bunny / myLot

I couldn't resist snapping this cute little bunny's pic.. it was small just a baby... but OH SO CUTE! This last few weeks I have been seeing more and more bunnies at the cemetery where I go looking for wildlife to photograph. I am always afraid for them as there are a bunch of big hawks here too.. I have photographed so many Red Tailed Hawks, and there are at least 3 other kinds that I have seen, Red Shouldered Hawk, Coopers hawk and a Merlin.. These little bunnies are in danger.. but hopefully they are very quick, because their cuteness wont save them. Do you have cute wildlife in your area?

@minx267 That's very sad. To our dismay, there are many endangered wildlife in our place from animals to plants.

We have rabbits by the score here - or so it seems. They are a menace and very difficult to eradicate. But I have to admit they are cute.

@JudyEv very cool, I don't think I have ever seen one of them. I have seen Red Tail Hawks (very Plentiful) red shouldered hawks, coopers hawks and Merlin hawks. there may be more but so far those are the ones I have photographed and a couple I have had to look up... the Merlin was in my back yard 20 feet from my back door eating a bird.... in the rain took me hours to figure out what it was.

this Merlin Falcon is going to town on this bird he killed in my backyard trying to eat as fast as he can as the crows want to steal his meal from him

@minx267 We need a LOT of hawks.

We have wedge-tail eagles which account for a few.

I have found the places in the city where our wildlife love to hide. but I bet the average person.. doesn't hardly know they are there or notice them.
