Baby Bunnies ...

This morning when Johnny went to let the dogs in,

he saw Pippa Lou scratching around the bird house post

and she would not leave......would not listen but then

again, what else is new!

So Johnny goes down there and this is what he found.

and dang, I thought I had turned the pictures...so

just turn your head!

 she had uncovered a nest of 5 baby bunnies!! And oh my, you

can't even believe how sweet and cute these babies are!!!

what she had scratched away was old grass that had fur all in it. You

can see the fur laying around.

that is what the mother uses to keep them warm

So we looked up baby bunnies on the internet and is says that

the mother stays gone all day and only returns in the middle of the night

to feed them. If you hear the babies crying, it usually means the mother

has not returned to feed them....that more than likely, something

has happened to her. Oh goodness, you know it will break my

heart if I hear baby bunnies crying!! We covered them back up to keep

them warm. And we will go outside with the dogs to make sure they

do not harm them.

later....
