Bunny, Bunny

I was doing some watering yesterday when I saw something run by and assumed it was one of those  ubiquitous chipmunks, but when I put my hose down I could see that it was a tiny baby bunny, no bigger than a chipmunk.  He stayed right there while I ran inside to get my phone and he let me get very close.  I then noticed a sibling in the mulch under the roses, but he ran away when I go too close.  The first little guy just stayed there and I was afraid he would get heat stroke in the hot sun, so I nudged him very lightly with the phone and he ran back under the bushes.






I thought it was amusing that they were about a foot from this sign in the mulch.  Do you think they can read?  Do you think they were eating the leaves next to the sign?  I saw Momma Bunny a few minutes later in some nearby bushes.  I looked for them today, but no luck.

So nice to have wildlife in your own yard.

Sweet baby! Though Mom Bunny should probably stop snacking and help out the little one....
