Bunny in the undergrowth

[Nathaniel]

I called round to the Conwy RSPB on spec,on my way back from Conwy Castle & Quay,and saw this rabbit hiding in the undergrowth. I did not have my long lens but only my 24-105mm with the Canon 5D MK2. So I took these photos without disturbing the rabbit too much.

You must be a Kindly Looking Chap Nathaniel if he let you get that close with a 24-105mm

Looks a bit dark on my Monitor, well spotted though.

He kinda of blends in with his background, so nicely spotted Nat.

Re: Bunny in the undergrowth

Thanks Paul & Tom. I did not clone out the leaves as IMHO it would look unnatural, with a crouching rabbit. With the leaves it does prove that he was trying to hide from me. Re the "kindly" face Paul- far from the truth. I was actually despondent as I could not see any water birds and was walking from the hide to my car when I spotted this chap on the gravel track. When it saw me it hopped into the undergrowth. It looks OK on my monitor.
