Hi everyone! This is The Daily Bone, Princess Edition, and we're your totally amazed puppy reporters Baby and Rosie Spaniel.
We were sniffing around in the back yard yesterday and look what we found:
It might not look like much, but under all that fluffy fur was a bunch of baby bunnies! Wow! Our ghostwriter said she saw at least five or six of them. We puppies tried to catch them as they all hopped away in different directions. In fact I, Baby Spaniel actually caught one. But it made a loud squeaky sound that surprised me so much I dropped it. Ghostwriter caught it, and then she caught another one, and called for us pups to follow her into the house. Look look look!
She held the bunnies so Dad could take a picture, and wouldn't let us doggies get them. Then she took them back outside, without us doggies (can you believe it??!!) and let them go in the bushes on the other side of the fence. She also found two more little bunnies and put them on the other side of the fence to be with their siblings. When we doggies went out next, there were no more bunnies for us to catch. That doesn't seem fair, does it?
Our predecessor, Chester L. W. Spaniel caught some bunnies and wrote a story about them. (See link below at the end of this post.) We are cocker spaniel hunting doggies too! Besides, why would that mother bunny put her whole nest of babies in OUR yard?
Harumph! |
Thank you for not eating my babies. |

Those baby bunnies are a bit last for Easter, BOL!! They sure are cute!
ReplyDeleteWe also would have destroyed that nest...thankfully Momma Bunny was still able to have a nice Mother's Day.
We hope you gave your Mom a good one, too!
You were a very nice host to those baby bunnies even if you tried to eat one.
ReplyDeleteWorry not Rosie and Baby. Those will surely not be the last bunnies you encounter. Ever heard the expression 'breeding like rabbits'...
ReplyDeleteToodle-oo!

The baby bunnies are so cute! I thought we might have babies too as the mom built her nest while she was expecting. It was a horrible location to choose and the next morning, a crow tossed all of the dead grass off the top and made quite the mess. I think it scared Mrs Bunny away as she decided not to use that location after all. You girls had quite the treat!
ReplyDeleteWe've never found baby bunnies in our yard, but we do get plenty of adult bunnies.
ReplyDeleteBUNNIES!!!!! We have so.many.bunnies, both adult and baby.....Luckily this year we haven't "caught" any(yet!) this year.

Dearest Princesses in residence, I saw some gray furs just like that this morning on my walk..
ReplyDeleteI kept expecting to see a CRIME SCENE but I ever did so I'm hoping they went hopping away.
BTW you two are growing quickly and get more beautimous each day
Hugs cecilia
The little bunnies are very cute, but they might not fare so well in our yard. Mom can never understand what possesses Mama Rabbit to make her nest where she knows there are dogs.
