Big and Little

The rabbits that come to my back yard like to sit under the bird feeder, where they seem to eat a combination of some of the weeds that grow there and the seeds that fall from the feeder. But I have noticed that the rabbits are quite timid. If there is a squirrel around they will stand back and wait until the squirrel leaves before they move in to nibble. The other day however, I saw one of them sharing the area with this little chipmunk. I guess the rabbit felt he could take that tiny guy, if he had to but I had to give it to the little one, he wasn't backing off and the two of them spent quite a while companionably munching away.
Cute odd couple 🐿️🐇

@365projectorgheatherb Yes it is real and they both stayed there nibbling away for quite a while. It took me several tries to get this shot because when the chipmunk put is head down to eat he almost completely disappeared into the long grass. There was also another rabbit standing a little further off who didn't get into the frame.
