Looking quite dapper and healthy. For scale, it's about the same size as the fawns right now. (Seriously.) Which is to say, a bit larger than a terrier.
I believe this is a black-tailed jackrabbit, common in northern California.
Good morning/afternoon/evening & Happy Tuesday everyone. I hope the day is kind to you.
Hugs all round, and extra hugs for anyone who wants/needs them.
This is getting to be a regular sight in the mornings. This little hedgehog is spending her days in a 'hedgehog box' nearby, hidden under low-hanging shrubs . The food & water are only a few feet away from her front door, so she has all the 'mod cons'. She has been busy decorating her box with leaves all night - it's thirsty work!
