Nibbling On Grass
by Liz Bickel

Very, very, very grey dismal day.
So the high ISO was needed to get the speed up to capture the wiggling nose.
No post processing Noise Reduction; so there could be a hint of noise. It's not enough to bother me personally.

Canon EOS 7D Mark II ,Canon EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM
1/800s f/8.0 at 560.0mm iso5000 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Looks great! Judging by the EXIF it appears that you used a 1.4x extender too.

Another critter with a blade of grass in its mouth. How did you luck out on that? Well, it takes a very patient and great photographer to get both captures. Well composed. Love his expression as if he was being caught.

Major cuteness! Nice composition and exposure.

Awww - totally adorable, Liz! The limited DOF is great and that one blade of grass is delightful. So is his/her expression - looks like he realizes he's been caught in the act. I love that the rabbit is totally surrounded by the grass, making it a perfect shot for the challenge.

It's Bugs...or maybe the Easter Bunny? Great shot - his eyes are crisp and he stands out very well against the green grass. I especially like the one blade of grass sticking out of his mouth, almost like he's smoking a cigarette. Well done!

Sweet.
