The rabbit surprised me. Not at the time, but just now.I wonder if the election results will be surprising. Settle in. Results should begin to come in soon. Feel free to hang out here for election night conversation. Or talk about anything else if you want.

Was he in-between hops, or just chilling out?
Your guess is as good as mine. I only saw him when I was looking at the photograph.
We've had a year for cottontails here, there are often 2 or 3 of them grazing in the back yard. The cats have been practicing sneaking up on them. The dogs would stand a good chance of catching them, as fat as the rabbits are.
The deer are coming into rut early this year I think. But normally this happens closer to the first hard freeze, just before T-Day, and the weather is unusually warm this year. The bucks are starting to make themselves seen, where usually I just hear them stomping through the brush, making noise as their racks catch in the brush.
The does are equally unshy. I'll take the dogs into the yard, on a leash, and they stare at us placidly, 20 ft away, nibbling at the berry block I put out for them. Normally the dogs would lunge at them, but they're just as sanguine, content to pass them by.
Watching Hallmark.
It's been a while since I got to vote for Miss Rheingold.
The Bears are going to the Super Bowl this season.
