Backyard Bunnies





This past week our neighbour Christine discovered a bunny burrow in the middle of her backyard. The mother rabbit had buried her bunnies under a clump of grass. Christine only noticed them when she was outside racking and noticed the grass moving up and down from the bunnies breathing.




Our boys were just delighted to watch them grow and last night the bunnies hopped out of their hole. We were really hoping we would be able to see them before they disappeared and fortunately Christine noticed them hopping last night.

We love our neighbourhood for many reasons but the nature and animals we get to have around us is just an added bonus. Two nights ago, Jody was sitting on her deck and a deer was literally staring at her about 10 ft away in her backyard. I guess the slogan for our hood really is correct
"City living, Country pace" ha!!
