Bunny in a wimple brings us halfway there.

Two rabbits sit quietly on a sunlit patch of grass, with a backdrop of lush, green vegetation and a hint of blue from a nearby water body. The soft lighting highlights the rich brown hues of their fur. The eyes have catchlights enhancing the details of these animals. © 2025 By Chris Mercer All Rights Reserved https://pixels.com/profiles/chris-mercer https://www.viewbug.com/member/chrismercerimages Christopher Mercer Art - Fine Art America Christopher Mercer Art - Pixels Original File Name: Marsh Rabbits (2025-06-14) (32))

🎃Headed to a pumpkin patch this weekend? Perhaps you’ll spot an eastern cottontail! 🐰These rabbits thrive in brambles bordering open fields, and they are fond of farms, gardens, and other green areas tended by people. The Eastern Cottontail Diorama in the Hall of North American Mammals features two rabbits on an October day in Ithaca, New York. They’re using their large eyes and pivoting ears to scan the surrounding pumpkin patch for danger. Startled cottontails will bolt for cover, showing the puffy white fur on the underside of their tails. The white flash seems to advertise that the speedy rabbits are off and running. For predators, it’s too late for a surprise attack. Some may give the cottontails up for lost and hunt for other prey. The Museum is open from 10 am–5:30 pm, so plan your weekend trip! Photo: D.

Something told me the two rabbits I’ve seen out front were having a party in the back. Here’s one of their [cute] babies; I spotted three. I must have spooked them when I was watering out back this morning. 🐰 #rabbit #babyrabbit #cute #easterncottontail https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf2az_QJ6p1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I hope to see the bunnies in the neighborhood once the weather starts to warm up. I still can’t believe she gave birth in the flower bed back in August. #animals #nature #easterncottontail #wildlife #wildlifephotography #naturephotography #wildrabbit #bunny #bunnies (at USA) https://www.instagram.com/p/CK2Vo0Ilctn/?igshid=1q6t75eq0i3pd

Enjoy this sweet tiny bunny this morning! This is one of the reasons I love Boston/Cambridge in the spring & summer - the bunny boom. #bunny #babybunny #babyanimals #cutenessoverload #adorable #bunnygram #instabunny #bunniesofinstagram #rabbitsofinstagram #rabbits #rabbit #easterncottontail #urbanwildlife #cuteness #wildlife #rabbitstagram #instacute #cutestagram #spring #summer #springtime
