Food for your Coopers Hawk. This baby rabbit was about the size of a tennis ball.
Yeah the fox population jumped and there's after-the-fact photos of a gabillion intact eggs sprawled in the open with negative zero cover. Instead of a bunch of smirking, engorged foxes laid out among a million of the things making the Dogecoin face at you. SO MUCH EGG. VERY MUCH OMELET. MANY BENEDICT.
I could see feral cats disturbing parents and not getting into the eggs, but foxes?
A next-level science project would be using hobbyist drone sh!t to make a surface to air anti-drone defense network.

I mentioned foxes because here on the East Coast they close beaches to humans to protect birds and turtles. The local fox population finds them delectable though. Used to see tons of foxes. In response to that the state DEP came in and killed the foxes to save the birds. This year we have had an explosion of rabbits on our island like I've never seen before. At any given time this summer you will find 3 to 5 rabbits in my back yard and the record is 8.
Bunnies everywhere!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is what the eye of a rabbit looks like from 6 feet away with a 300mm Canon L lens. image is cropped.
This old crippled cat adopted me when I moved here so I put a bed for her under my RV and fed her regularly as she was pretty skinny when first we met. She was born with deformed front legs and runs on her elbows and has really well muscled haunches. She lies in wait in the bush behind my place and when innocent baby bunny comes along she pounces and bites.
She brought me this one about eight years ago and seemed quite proud of herself for catching it. Poor thing was barely dead and still warm. Since then the cat has taken up residence with a widow down the line from me and is living the life of Riley. Great old cat and is about 20 years old now.
Take care.

poor fckr, electrocuted.
My GF the biologist says that's a Pipevine Swallowtail FWIW.
We saw tons of these Pyrosomes, free floating colonial tunicates, over in Catalina last weekend. They were anywhere from about an inch long up to about 6-8 inches like the ones pictured below.
tarantula, I’m pretty sure. Never have seen one this color before. Resembles the Brazilian white knee type. Also real skittish this one. Also as the Brazilian one is described.
maybe it’s just an albino.
