Wild Rabbits

Can you see the bunny rabbit in my garden? We have had an explosion of rabbits in my neighborhood. Partly this is due to a decline in fox populations. Between loss of habitat and encroachment by coyotes, foxes are not having an easy time these days. 

My husband and I have no pets. Our yard is a bird sanctuary, and now apparently a bunny haven, too. For the past couple weeks, I have observed this furry little friend nibbling clover in the lawn. It studiously ignores the lettuces, as you can see in one of the next photos. Perhaps it learned a lesson from its British cousin Peter Rabbit. (Click on a photo to open a larger image.)

If you missed my interview last week with Welsh Canadian author Cathy Ace, she has good news. She has sold another series! While you are waiting for her next series to appear on bookshelves, you can continue to read her excellent Cait Morgan mystery series.
