Mark Olson recently photographed an adult Black-tailed Jackrabbit. These big rabbits are usually moving, so it's fun to see one resting for a moment in the sun.

Last week I watched as two adult Black-tailed Jackrabbits appeared from dense foliage on a neighboring property. They were then followed by a juvenile. These jackrabbits, also called American Desert Hares, usually have two to four young. And, boy, can they move fast!

Thanks to Mark for allowing me to share his photo with you here.

Heat wave! The temperatures kicked up today. It's a sunny, warm day with the Pacific Ocean sparkling in the afternoon light.
