Rookery Rabbit

As I was walking the rookery perimeter path, I caught movement behind me from the corner of my eye. Turned around and found this rabbit hopping right behind me like it was following me. When I turned around, it sat and looked at me. Wild adult cottontail, not a pet rabbit. Just sat and let me take its photo. Very pretty bunny.
