White-tailed Jackrabbit

Hello All :wavey:

I haven't posted in fauna for a while... In fact, I really don't post photos that much at all. At any rate, I met up with this little fellow a while back on the way to work. They are fairly common here in Alberta and it's pretty neat to watch them as their color changes throughout the seasons.

40D, EF400mm f/5.6L@f/5.6, 1/640sec, ISO 400.

Cheers :smile:

Hi Derrick,

Classic image of a White-tail - simple and clean with nice light (including the catch-light in the eye), and you nailed the little beast in "mid munch". Well done...

Cheers...thanks for posting this...

Cute image Derrick. i do believe that a lower angle would have made this more powerful. This would have elevated the head of the animal above its body.
