Here is the balance of my weekend shooting, including friendly rabbits and cooperative bees and wasps.

This rabbit and I made friends. I believe it is s domestic rabbit released in the park.

It was very tame, and would eat blackberries from my hand.

Of course, I have some Coelioxys shots.

With lighting from either side, these Coelioxys look like they should be hawking Gatorade or Pennzoil or something.

Random midge shot. Without a Cognisys, it is just spray and pray.

The next morning at dawn, I found this sphecid (species ID anyone?) resting. These guys tend to be less gregarious than the Ammophila.

This fledgling sharp shined hawk was sitting on top of an RV, right above the open skylight. I wonder if the occupants saw it.
