Yeah I'm sure that sitting very still so it won't be noticed is SO likely to avoid becoming dinner. Unless you happen to have a big snow fall I guess.
The wild rabbits around here are pretty much invisible to me in the summer unless they move. Of course they aren't snowshoe hares so they stick out like a brown rabbit on a white background in the snow Maybe that is why the rabbit seems to come out only around dusk and dawn. I do know where it spends some of its time. There is a pile of old wood with some cattle panels laying on top and a metal roof sheet over that (this is the "cleaned up to 'here' area" ) in front of the barn. Perfect place for the rabbit to hang out, natural cave. Also a mere 40' down between the barn to the "rabbit feeding station". It seems to go there for dinner around the same time as I go to close up the barn.
