Hare, not so apparent

This Snowshoe Hare darted across Caribou Lake Rd in front of my car this morning. The first I have seen a hare in the area, perhaps they are on a population up swing. I was only 30ft from him and when he turned his head away, hiding his eyes from my view, he would nearly disappear. Especially on the this gray, snowy day.

I also saw the elusive Cottontail at my bird feeder before sunrise...the one that leaves the funny pellets that my daughter brought a handful of to me the other day.
