5-3, Bonding with Bunny

When Mom and Dad limit your electronics time (tv included), you have to get creative.  For Nikolas, this meant climbing in the rabbit's pen to see if he had it any better.  Turns out, he didn't.  The poor little guy had just lost a claw (who knows, maybe he was trying to outrun Nikolas.....) and was bleeding, hopping, hopping, bleeding.  Nikolas was pretty concerned about his little, furry friend.  (No worries, he's ok now....minus a claw.)  We don't keep a very accurate count as to Rascal's age.  I think he's about 6.5 now.  We sort of stopped keeping track when one vet told us he'd just seen a rabbit that was 12.  Gulp.  12.  We love the little critter, but rabbits aren't as easy of pets as the book said....especially when he spends 98% of his time in his cage in our living room.   Oh well, he's got it made now that we've set up his palace in the backyard, the weather's quite comfy and we haven't seen the foxes peeking in....yet.....




Doesn't his expression just scream,
'Really, Mom, ANOTHER picture?!"


Nikolas just HAD to get me to take a picture of him 'eating' this worm.
Don't worry, no worms were injured in the filming of this scene.....

One thing about trading in one lens for two, is you're bound to have the 'wrong'
lens on at the right time.  I love these bluebirds that frequent our feeder.
Pretty little flowers in our backyard.....
