Brush Rabbit, Finley National Wildlife Refuge, Willamette Valley, Oregon

Brush Rabbit (Sylvilagus bachmani), Finley NWR, Willamette Valley, Oregon. A Marsh Wren and Red-winged blackbird (and, a couple other birds I can't identify) can be heard in the background. It's early spring on this Willamette Prairie habitat fragment.
