Porch rabbits
Edited on Fri Jun-06-08 06:09 PM by undergroundpanther
At my house, my front porch has two stone columns on either side of the stoop with vines in them and solar lights. One side now has a rabbit nest in it and today the little ones were out,OMG they are so friggin CUTE.I snapped some pics with my camera phone of the porch nest, and two shots of one of the baby rabbits.There were three sitting under the vines today,more in the little burrow they had dug into my porch box.
Thought y'all might like to see it.I for one cannot figure out how momma got up there.And why would she choose a door we come in and out of all day? Yesterday we had a big storm rain was rushing in to the porch nest I threw a tarp over it. They stayed dry, took it off after the storms were over.And the baby lettuces I put in the corner there are being eaten up. So maybe mother rabbit knows I am not gonna mess with her babes . I am cool with the rabbits in the yard. I leave stuff out for them and all the critters and some of the rabbits they have gotten bold enough to take baby carrots from my hand.

The porch/nest

One of the baby rabbits.Same rabbit is in both pics.

1. How magical!
I live in an urban environment and just love seeing wildlife trying to adapt to an urbanized area.
You must feel blessed that a mother rabbit chose your home.
