Here in Michigan you can not hunt city's as big as Pittsburg or even smaller ones.
We hunt fence rows, wild berry patches, logging cut overs after the loggers have left and the new growth a couple years after.

Cotton tails do not change color during the late fall and winter. Watch close for that shiny black eye in thick brush piles.

Snow shoe hares do change color in the late fall and winter. They also have that shiny black eye you have to look for when hunting them.

Hunt both slow real slow when you do not have a rabbit dog.
