The rabbits

One of the five baby rabbits
One of the Baby Rabbits - the quality is poor either because I was moving too much or the camera was zoomed in too close.

Mother Rabbit

Mother Rabbit and her brood - the only photo in which her head was up. The rest of the time, she was grooming the heck out of them. She actually managed to flip one of them (on the far left) onto its back. It kept nursing, its white belly exposed and its legs kickingĀ  a little.

    Hey cuz,
    Do you know what a rare opportunity it is to get a picture of mother with her babies? I tried to get a picture of my rabbit stretched out in the shade sleeping yesterday through my kitchen window, and before I got my camera ready the phone rang. When I went to look out the window he was gone. Darn!

    Oh, I know it! I snapped as many as I could. When she saw the flash in the window, she moved into the garden and hid. I haven’t gotten any pics of the chipmunk under my shed. He even came onto the deck to eat some sunflower seeds, but he is too fast! By the time I clicked - zip! He was gone!

    Gotta say that I’m loving my digital camera. :)
