This little guy was smaller than he looks in the photos and endlessly curious about me. Thats how i knew immediately he was a baby. Unlike the adult cottontails, this youngster hasnt learned about predators or danger yet. The den is underneath the shed and when i exercise on my mat laid out on the shed porch, he pops his little head out and comes to sit by me. He watches with great interest while i do my exercises. I can only guess he is not the rule follower of the bunch, as im sure their mother gave them orders to stay in the den until she returns and his siblings never seem to venture out.
