I looked out my front window just now and saw this one enjoying the late afternoon sun while lying in an improvised form where the paving blocks have shifted and sunk, up against the edge of the poured concrete driveway. The stone and concrete were quite warm from sitting in the sun.
Sorry for the lousy photo - this was taken through a dirty window, and he sat up when I tried to snap him through the open door.

The local white-tailed jackrabbits (a species of hare, not a true rabbit) are now well into their change-from-white-to-brown cycle, but the snowstorm earlier this week is not making it easy on them.

A local white-tailed jackrabbit (actually a species of hare, not rabbit) is in solar-charging mode, having found a bit of sunbeam passing between our house and the neighbour's in the mid-afternoon.

Surprising facts [1] about animals, part 1375:
The white-tailed jackrabbit, which is actually a species of hare also known as the prairie hare or "white jack", or simply "jack", in groups is capable of #geometry. It owes this to the fact that hares are territorial and not social.
When multiple jacks are present at a round bowl, a group of 2 will always arrange itself at 180 degree spacing, 3 at 120 degree spacing, and 4 at 90 degree spacing. I don't have a bowl big enough to see if the pattern holds true for groups of 5 or more.
It's pretty neat!
[1] For small values of "fact".

Awfully cute! Ours are just starting to get over the worst of their skittishness. When I was shovelling snow yesterday, one of them came running down the street and sat about 20ft away from me while trying to decide if he could make it to the bowl without getting closer to me.
I wonder if Edmonton jacks are related to Regina jacks, and if so, whether ours are considered the hillbilly redneck cousins no one talks about.

#Jackrabbit in my front yard today. This isn't the young one I saw yesterday; this is one of the adults that lives in the area.
Unlike true #rabbits, #hares (jackrabbits are hares, not rabbits... complain to someone) don't dig burrows. Instead, they just kind of scoop out a shallow depression in the dirt, and then lie in it. Hares aren't social animals, and live alone, so they don't really need a burrow. When they lie motionless in these bowls with their ears flat against their body and their legs pulled in underneath them, they look surprisingly close to rocks.
This one spent several hours in this spot this morning while it was windy and rainy. I opened the door slowly to get a picture, but after the first "click" sound, he or she took off.
Captions:
1) "I'm watching you closely. I don't trust you."
2) "Nope, I'm outa here."
3) "I must return to my home planet, my people need me." -
I see a cool bunny, I draw a cool bunny. Attack for Moirasars @ Art Fight!

Yes... and no. It's complicated 😜
We've got something like half a dozen species of #hare in Canada. Some of them have common names based on "#jackrabbit", even though they're not #rabbits.
These ones are "white-tailed jackrabbits", formal name "Lepus townsendii". Where I live, they're the only common species of hare, so they're generally just called jackrabbits, or #jacks.
Further north than I am, there are Arctic hares. For whatever reason, those are generally not called jackrabbits. 🤷
Why does it have to be this complicated? I have no idea 😃

Many of them are skittish; there are a few braver ones. For various reasons I needn't go into here, they get more used to me as the winter goes on; I talk to them to try to get them used to me being around. When the snow first falls, they'll scatter as soon as they see or hear me, but by now they mostly just stand back a bit. There's one particularly brave one this year that actually comes directly to me when I go outside! i.e. he actually comes from wherever in the yard he happens to be to within about 2 meters of me and waits for the [redacted].
Not sure about jackrabbits in Edmonton (though @Satori and @cenobyte might confirm), but they're generally most active for an hour or two either side of dusk. Unfortunately those tend to be fairly high-traffic times in cities, at least in the prairies, so they might all be hiding away from cars and people noises and movements. I'm at the end of a bay, so my front yard is very low-traffic. These jacks are out there on my front lawn and scattered up and down the street every evening.
