This morning I noticed a rabbit hanging around the backyard nibbling at something he likes to eat on the ground.
This rabbit’s fur is not white, nor brown. Here in Eastern Canada, between seasons of spring and summer, the rabbit’s fur is two toned to match the environment. In the following photo he blends quite nicely with the landscape.
The rabbit’s fur changes color with our four seasons. It is a survival mechanism, camouflaging them from predators.
In winter their fur turns white and in summer it is brown. In fall and spring the fur in two-toned white and brown. This rabbit’s fur is slowly turning a brown color with the onset of summer.
The rabbit was finding something of interest near the rhubarb patch and I was able to get these photos of him this morning before he hopped away, heading for the forest.
