Field Notes

Notes:

This baby bunny was out in the open in the middle of the trail at Heald Orchard Conservation area at noon today. Its mother was nowhere to be seen, so I moved it off the middle of the trail where it could get stepped on to the grass at the edge just 10 feet away.

Fyn, this little one has to be just days old. Hopefully the mother finds him and takes care of him.
