These three Eastern Cottontails were photographed on the grounds of the Homestead Elementary School in Carrollton, Texas. Each of the rabbits were involved in a different behavior. The first one we encountered was skittish and on guard. He was obviously concerned by our close approach and was ready to bolt. The second cottontail was intrigued by our group and displayed unmistakable curiosity. The last Eastern Cottontail was perfectly content. He seemed secure, and maybe just a little overconfident about his level of concealment.
