That would wake you up if you were looking for little rabbits and something the size of this bird took off.

Those are some "Cool" pictures. 

Looks like you got something heading into or out of that little ditch there.

That's pretty wild.
What exactly happen? It looks like the bird dropped down into the snow pretty good there. You can see the outline of his feet and head also. He wasn't taking a nap.  :nono: Tell us what happen.

Ya i thought it was pretty wierd to. When he was trying to take off i was wondering if he was injured or something but once he got in the air he seemed fine.  Maybe it was just "special" :biggrin:

You didn't notice if he was carrying off your rabbit did you?
