When Bunny Hops…..

I remember seeing young rabbits running and playing around my backyard apple tree.  They did not seem to eat anything valuable but many natural weeds.  It was fun to watch them.

Then came a year when I did not see any rabbits at all.  No momma rabbit leading her babies across the incline to hide in the tall grass.  It was very strange.

I know that year—I saw foxes coming by the yards from the woods.    It was terrible I found a dead baby rabbit’s head.  Who knows what happened?

I know a lot of people will complain about animals.  But I think the world is a little better when you have a healthy dose of wild life to observe.  It is like the world saying–“Hey everything is okay.”

This spring and summer I saw some rabbits again.  They were running very fast. I think something scared them.  So it goes—stay safe—

Watching The Birds

Have you ever watched the birds and wondered how they get by each day?  So many things are hard for them.

As they get food– birds must use caution.  One bad move and end up as another animals’ dinner.

Often must search for water in really strange places.  A simple puddle left over from a garden hose is a treat for them.  Instant beach.

Birds could teach us something.  They are simple creatures that don’t live very long. Yet they sing each day and take good care of their young.
