I am beginning to see the Eastern Cottontail Rabbit out in the open here in my area. I see them year around, but in the winter I only get glimpses of them.
This Rabbit has appeared in the same area for the past several days. It allows me to get close and I have also been seeing another one in this same spot.
I saw this Rabbit near my place in the Ouachita Mountains of Arkansas.
I was hand holding a Canon EOS 7D Mark II camera with a EF 100-400 mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM lens attached.
I photographed this Swamp Rabbit with a Deer Fly on its nose near my cabin in the Ouachita Mountains here in Arkansas. These Deer Flies seem extra terrible this year for animals and humans.

I was hand holding my Fujifilm X-T3 with a Canon EF 100-400 mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II lens attached with a Fringer EF-FX Pro. I was shooting in aperture priority mode (AV) with a shutter speed of 1/1100 of a second at f7.1 and the ISO at 2500. I also had a -0.3 exposure value. White Balance on auto.
