The rabbits’ tea party

[callmemadam]

After quite a long rabbit-free spell, I’ve been seeing two big ones in the garden regularly, just eating grass and clover, which I don’t mind too much. Then a baby one appeared. He was very naughty, nibbling away at plants in a flower bed and not keen to be frightened away. This morning a new one turned up: jet black, which is uncommon. I looked out just now and saw all four together, happily chomping grass. There are so many foxes and birds of prey around here that it’s a wonder to me how the rabbits survive.

I'd love to see bunnies, especially baby ones, in the garden but I can appreciate how infuriating is can be when they eat your plants! Maybe the black rabbit is really the Black Rabbit Of Inlé ;)

I hope not! He was out there this morning all by himself in the dark and rain. He reminds me of an old Sylvac one I had in my bedroom when I was a child.
