Jackrabbit
The desert jackrabbits are big, their ears are half as tall as their bodies. They will hold very still seeming invisible, then suddenly burst out of the brush and tear across the ground lickety split. This one let me get quite close before he took off. They are gorging themselves on the green grass and weeds that cover the ground at this time of the year. A feast before the drought of summer.
More tomorrow,
