Photo of a jackalope brings to an end a long quest

Since I was a child I have read about this illusive, mysterious creature of the Great Plains. I have searched high and low, followed every tip I could but had never seen one – until today.

As I drove along, I noticed something odd in a field near Denver International Airport. Coming to a stop, I trained my lens on the spot, the elusive creature suddenly popped tall for a brief instant.

I was able to snap only one picture but it is an image of a lifetime and a wildlife encounter that I will forever treasure. I certainly hope your first day of April is just as memorable.
