I was snowshoeing on a late spring morning deep in the forests of the Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, USA, when I saw this snowshoe hare sitting on a snow mound. I carefully positioned myself facing the hare. Luckily, the hare accepted me into his world and let me sit and wait. And wait. I waited patiently for the hare to do something, but sleep was the only thing that interested this little fella. When the snowshoe hare finally woke, the hare hopped off the mound and continued a short distance. And I was able to capture the moment of the hare hopping, accentuating his very large feet.
