We love on the second floor and have a huge lawn at the back of our house where our balcony is over. Come evening, we usually see like 3-5 bunnies running around the hedges and other lawns, but once they sit still, it really takes you a while to find them. It might seem easy to find them because of their colour, but it actually blends quite a lot better than you'd assume at a certain height.

Because I now am actively looking for them, I keep mistaking tree stumps for buns hiding motionless in the grass! 😂

Humans have pretty good vision (in daylight, anyway), better than most other predators. A lot of them don't even see as many colors as we do, and on top of that our eyes are much higher than e.g. a wolf's or cat's.

Though I assume that most birds of prey have better vision.
