New School Year Approaching


Some of you will remember the two bunnies we rescued the weekend before Easter. Here they are, having been hand-fed and cared for by a good friend until they were old enough to survive on their own. We released them in our yard at the beginning of the summer, and I've seen one or both of them frequently through the summer months. They have grown very large, and are still quite tame about eating contentedly even though we walk by them to go to the workshop behind the house.
