This fellow appeared in our yard 2 or 3 weeks ago.
The first time I saw him (or her), I tried to get a photo. He disappeared before I could get my camera. Although I kept watch, I didn't see him again for over a week. I was beginning to think I had imagined him, until my neighbor mentioned that he had seen him, too. I see him almost every day now.
It is difficult to see from the photo, but he has pink eyes and pink ears, much like a domestic rabbit. The difference is in the shape of his head - and his wiliness. By all accounts, he should not have lived this long. Maybe the neighborhood predators are stuffed with the surplus crop of chipmunks this year.
He must be hiding down the rabbit hole to keep safe....though he's always late!
