Groundhog
Day 94 /365
On my search for the Easter Bunny, I came across Mr. Groundhog who just recently came out of hibernation. While stuffing his face, he pointed me in the right direction.
Interesting Fact: Groundhogs are skilled climbers and swimmers, which helps them to escape less-skilled predators. ( http://www.havahart.com/groundhog-facts )

Cottontail Rabbit
Finally, I found him. He was eating to get his strength up for Easter Sunday tomorrow.
Interesting Fact: Cottontail rabbits are almost completely mute animals. They communicate with each other by thumping with their back feet against the ground. ( http://animals.pawnation.com/cottontail-rabbits-1901.html )

We don’t have groundhogs in Australia and I always thought a groundhog is some sort of boar! How cute.
You guys have so many amazing animals in Australia, that I wish we had some of them here. But you are right groundhogs are cute. Thanks for stopping by. 🙂

My, oh, my what small ears you have Mr Easter Bunny! 🙂 Whenever I see a pic of a groundhog, I’m reminded of the movie. This one is too cute with his mouth full of goodies.
I agree that the bunny should have longer ears, but at list the groundhog cuteness makes up for it. 🙂
The cuteness factor does make up for it 🙂

Really nice pictures, especially the great close shot of the bunny!
