Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s the beloved Cottontail on the Trail! You might know it better by its charming nickname, the “Minnehaha Bunny”. Now, this isn’t just any bunny rabbit. This 1,500-pound bronze giant was sculpted by Jeff Barber from Cannon Falls, Minnesota. It took root along the Minnehaha Parkway back in 2002, thanks to the city’s Art in Public Places program. What makes the Cottontail on the Trail so special, you ask? Well, it’s the locals who’ve given it a sprinkle of magic. They’ve turned our giant bunny into a bit of a chameleon. Imagine: Easter arrives, and the Cottontail is sporting a festive coat of colorful eggs. Halloween rolls around and, poof, it might be donning a spooky costume! This bunny reflects the spirit of the seasons, the pulse of current events, and the playful heart of its neighborhood. It’s a constant reminder that art can be a lively, ever-changing conversation between the city and its people.
