Well, Rusty, on the wild side, we get possums, raccoons, lots of squirrels and chipmunks, owls, hawks, and an occasional snake. No skunks, but have friends who've had them get under their houses.
Awe, so cute!! I had a bunny when I was in High school, I use to put a leash on him and I would take him for a walk. He was a sweet bunny. Bunnies are so sweet. You are blessed with yours. I bet it is relaxing to see them explore!
@Gloria: Mopsy is rather bulky and can just fit in the hole in the cinder block. I'm sure she feels secure in it. Since she's lived here, she has trimmed down a bit. I think getting to exercise outside has helped. @Daisymum: I really like to watch the bunnies when they are out in the playpens. I have to "bunnysit" because we have hawks and owls in the neighborhood that would probably like a little rabbit snack--and I don't really trust the family cats. I usually spin or knit while watching them. It is a pleasant way to spend time.
I am fond of the bunnies. My experience with pet rabbits began in 2001 when I finally gave in to the kids' requests for a bunny. I was amazed at these interesting, smart, and inquisitive creatures. They are an endless source of entertainment, joy, and, well those less than endearing things that pets sometimes bring us. We also have the cats, of course. And the Dog. What would I do without critters?
Makes me miss our bunnies (Coco, Pepper, Floppy and Jumpy.) So sweet. We had rabbits for many years but, living in northern colorado, it was labor intensive in the winter.
Robin, here in the south, it is the hot summer weather that is risky for the buns. I tend to only let them play outside in the early morning or the evenings once it gets really hot. They do love being outside.
I enjoy art and like to look for it in the natural world. My craft interests include handspinning and most of the fiber arts, especially knitting, weaving, and working with paper. Other important things are my family and friends, my pets, nature, literature, poetry, music, history, birding, star gazing, museums...and the list goes on. In other times and places, I've been an archaeologist, taught anthropology, and worked in a living history museum, so I find all sorts of things to hold my interest and keep me entertained. I hope to share some of these things with you.
Quite a gang! Thats one critter I have not seen around the retreat.

ReplyDeleteVery cute bunnies, your Mopsy looks a bit like my Emily (if she was a bunny!) I liked the shot of her in her little hidey space.

What lovely buns you have Melissa. They are so sweet. We never had buns as kids - we had kitties instead.
