White-tailed Jackrabbit

Free Desktop Wallpaper Background Image

As a little bonus for my friends and followers every month I provide a free image for use as your desktop background wallpaper on your computer, mobile phone, or tablet. Each beautiful photo is a picture that I have created and it always includes a calendar overlay for the month. I know that I’m always looking for a calendar and having one on my desktop or phone wallpaper is very convenient!

Hiding in Plain Sight

This months calendar image comes from a recent visit to the Rivers Edge Golf Course in Okotoks. It was a hot sunny day and there were many hawks circling high overhead, hunting for rabbits, voles, and ground squirrels. This poor little White-tailed Jackrabbit was desperately trying not to be noticed and it laid perfectly still in the grass. I almost stepped on it before I noticed that it was there and it didn’t even move a hair. Why it would choose to do so in the middle of a wide open grassy area I have no idea, but the technique is surprisingly effective…
