:) Great picture! They are cute little critters. I hadn't seen a rabbit in the yard for years due to my outdoor cats. Now that I've changed them into indoor cats the bunnies frolic and play like it's a bunny resort. Pulled in the driveway the other day and one was on my patio munching away. :x I'm not sure which plant he was eating but I've given up on having nice flowering sunny beds because something is always eating the phlox and coneflowers down to nubs.

cute lil sapsuckers ain't they? I was mowing my yard and had to stop because my yard seems to be a nursery for bunnies :o Had to leave a strip of grass up along the side of my house and the garage because they were hopping every where! :lol:

Great pic of the lil fella!

Dang rabbits! :x Been eating my pea plants and phlox and anything else they please! I'm ready for stew, or at least to offer up the meat to anyone with a mind to take em down, so long as they remove the carcass from the yard!

THe idiot next door has been shooting and poisoning the varmints our back behind his yard where ours wraps around his. ONLY thing is, their neighbor varmint leaves the carcass for my ol' girls or the mower to find! :evil:

Sam, I'm afraid that when Wee Debs get through with her chainsaw on that bunny, the brown suace may be wasted. :eek: :wink:
