Ok, I know bunnies......multiply very quickly, but this is ridiculous!
Yesterday morning when I left for work there was the teeniest tiniest little bunny on the sidewalk. I didn't want to scare him, but I also didn't want him sitting right in the middle of the sidewalk because we have a hawk nearby that would love baby bunny for dinner!
So I slowly opened the door and he went scampering off into the bushes - whew! Last night when Terry got home he was out on the sidewalk again. We left and when we came back, he was laying near some irises in the flower bed. Each time he went scampering off as soon as he realized we were near.
Terry just got home today.........and now there are 4 baby bunnies! He had to go out to bring in the empty garbage pails and they actually started coming towards him - they're not even old enough to know to be afraid of people!
They are just the most adorable things, but we're also sad because we're not exactly in a rural area where it's ok to be a baby bunny. We're thrilled to be able to see them this close up, but we're afraid for them, and we're both dreading the day we find a dead one.
I will try to get some pics tonight.....
I had to come back to add just how totally adorable they are! The one last night was on the porch for a bit. He was doing this totally adorable baby bunny hop across the porch, then he evidently wanted to get down - which reminds me, I have no idea how he hopped high enough to get up there in the first place!
