It was a very warm Sunday afternoon for the bunnies to play in the yard, but on my way to church in the morning I spotted deer on the road instead of cottontails. Guess the Easter bunny was playing elsewhere as I didn’t see him today.

I think the other critters are upset that the groundhog saw his shadow and they are sick of winter too as a squirrel and rabbit come up to my basement door at the same time today. I’m not sure if the rabbit was planning on eating the plant inside but the squirrel was probably looking for more bird seed.

The other evening, a deer was eating grass on my yard and bumped into a rabbit who took off running and scared a squirrel who caused a robin to take flight. I may need traffic signals out in my yard. Both the deer population and the rabbit numbers seem to be high this year and this spring’s young bunny is growing up fast as it nibbles on my lawn.

As the sun was setting this evening, two rabbits were playing under a pine tree and only ventured onto my path and around the pine tree to stay off the snow since there is no green grass or violets blooming yet like this cottontail enjoyed last spring. There is not even any dandelions yet for the poor bunnies to eat.
Springtime Bunny
This morning a chipmunk was on my porch but yesterday afternoon, two little bunnies were hopping around the screen porch, teasing my cats. It was fun watching them race around the yard and they have grown since when I nearly stepped on one of them. And so when they grow up more, they will be after my garden too besides the chipmunks but since I don’t have it planted yet, they have to settle for clovers instead.
