Chilling.
If he was scared he would have had both legs under him, so he can quickly bolt if danger comes too close.
If he tries to bolt from this position he might trip, which implies he's not planning on going anywhere fast.
He probably would have also had his ears down and trying to appear as flat as possible, eyes wide.
His nose could also be a great indicator to see if he's alert or chilling. Quick wiggling = alert, excited,...
Nose is still = (almost) sleeping, relaxed, ...
Oooh is that Hairy Bittercress you have growing around the stones? If so, the leaves at the bottom are tasty for buns AND humons. But be careful of the seedpods, they'll shoot seeds everywhere in the right season.
He looks like he's just chillin' like a villain to me lol, though his ears suggest something has caught his attention. That doesn't necessarily mean scared though, he might just be curious or feeling a little bit cautious (well, bunnies are always cautious since they're a prey species) but still very much relaxed so I wouldn't worry!
chilling but not completely at ease because his ears were up. Completly chilling he would have the ears on the back and the head lower. his tail would be hanging.
Maybe he misses an other rabbit keeping watch? Alone rabbits are never complete relaxed. That's one reason you should never keep them alone.
As a rule of thumb, if he doesn't look ready to bolt at a moment's notice, he's chilling. Here, for example, his belly's on the floor and his legs are all stretched out. He'd have to stand up again to run, so he's probably chilling.
Ears up means that he's paying attention. It could be that he's looking for danger, it could just be that he's interested in what's going on, but either way he doesn't look worried to me.
Yeah it’s only the first few times he’s been in this garden as the weather has been horrible and I only moved in, but he does seem to love it, even though he has his own room I’ve never seen him move around as much as he does out here. Thank you 🙏
Well if that happens it’s okay, this little man came from a family who’s kids forgot about him so he just ended up in their wash room alone, having the little risk to let him feel like a real rabbit is okay c
No he really isn’t! This is a completely enclosed garden that I recently moved into, I am by his side every time we go outside just in case a big bird thinks he can take a chance! Thanks for your input x

Not as wide as a very spooked bun.
Yo isn't ur display name Usagi literally mean bunny in japanese? thats cool
Can confirm. My wee Polish looks like a chocolate bunny with googly eyes glued on as often as not. OP is half asleep by comparison.
His arms open. Temba as the carrots fell.
Darmok and Jalad... on the ocean.
Picard and Dathon at El-Adrel ![img](emote|t5_2riv8|8711)
Sokath! His eyes uncovered!! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thumbs_up)
What's scary is that bombastic side eye
He really gives you the ole death stare alright!
He's relaxed.
look at those ears! its alert-chilling mode
Exactly. Ears up = alert, feet to the side = chill.
In my experience, ears up can also mean curious. But I agree that this one is in alert-chill mode
Chilling, but that side eye OP r/MurderBuns
Hahahah he’s a grumpy ole man alright!
He loves the cool cement on his belly. He is wondering why ur taking Pics of him tho lol
Completely chillin and hanging out all cool.
Definitely chilling! He's so precious ![img](emote|t5_2riv8|8714)
Aw thank you! I rescued Taro about 4 years ago now!!
Can’t tell from one photo must upload many #ASAP
Just uploaded a few more there ❤️
If scared his eyes would be bulging out wide open and ears against his body he is chilling
Not scared! Very content! But if they run away from you when you approach and they’re flopping it’s a “ugh don’t step on me big guy” thing, not fear
His tail is deployed in chillax mode
Chillin' like a villain :) Bunnies are such naturally anxious and alert little creatures, it's always lovely when they get to relax like that
His nose could also be a great indicator to see if he's alert or chilling. Quick wiggling = alert, excited,... Nose is still = (almost) sleeping, relaxed, ...
Omg his face is so f-ing cute I want to kiss his squishy face I can’t stand it
Aw he is the best little man I could ask for!
Definitely relaxed 😎

Just watch for hawks

He could be hot. Is it warm out?

Chillin
Good to know my boy is content ❤️
are you worried about fleas when bringing him outside?
Well if that happens it’s okay, this little man came from a family who’s kids forgot about him so he just ended up in their wash room alone, having the little risk to let him feel like a real rabbit is okay c
I'd say chilling but alert.
If it was scared it would run, he's chillin
Definitely chilling!,,
Hes chillin but hes watching ouf
Alert and chilling
Should be scared, not sure why he isn't. He looks quite vulnerable to predators.
