Right now, outside our window/sliding glass doors in the dark is a little wild bunny who looks like she could be related to Miss Hoppy, as she has shorter ears than wild rabbits traditionally do, She is very wild, and very skittish, and only comes by when it is too dark for pictures, but she has made two tunnels in to the snow bank outside our door, so she can travel beneath the snow safely away from the eyes of predators! We know she comes by more often than we see her because of the bunny dropping she leaves!
We call her Ilsa, the winter bunny!

The hawks around here - red-tailed, mostly, also tens to hang out near highway interchanges for the field mice and critters that live in the grassy median strips, and the like, and we are only a mile from both a major highway, and a reservoirs and woods as well!
