Backyard Springtime Nature in New Jersey.

Local Rabbit at Sunrise. Image taken with a Nikon D810a camera and 600 mm f/4 VR lens (ISO 1600, 600 mm, f/4, 1/1000 sec). If you look closely, you can see the reflection of my house in the rabbit’s eye. I miss having several friends join me for sunrise on the ship. Now at least I have a Jersey rabbit that is willing to be a model.
