Recently, I heard some rustling outside so went to investigate and found this rabbit hanging out near the house.

My trailcam got a couple pictures of an eastern cottontail rabbit…

On the newest batch from the trailcam, there were some great bobcat shots which I will post later this week. Stay tuned.

I spotted this rabbit in the road as I was cooling off after a recent jog. When I saw its hind legs stretched out, at first I thought it might have been hit by a car… but it was just lounging that way and hopped off as I got closer:

I recently noticed some damage to our doormat. I was quite sure that the rapid wear and tear was not caused by the wiping of human feet.

What could cause this damage? I thought perhaps birds were using the fibers for nesting material or maybe a squirrel?

I set up my automatic trailcam to catch the culprit. See the results of the investigation after the jump.

After battling with squirrels, now a rabbit appears to be gnawing on the foundation mortar of our home.  I believe the siding damage was already there thanks to the squirrels.
