Our baby bunnies are gone. So sad. A week or so ago, we went out to look at them. One bunny settled itself half in the burrow and half out of it -- they were getting so big they could barely all fit in it. We kept our visit short because the bunnies were always frightened by our presence.
A few minutes after we left them, Daddy came home and wanted to see the bunnies as he had not seen them in a few days. Kyle was excited to show Daddy the bunnies and ran to the burrow. It scared the one that was half out of the burrow. It took off and ran around our yard. Derek called for his work gloves and then wrangled that poor little bunny. It took him two tries to get the bunny to stay in the burrow.
Later that afternoon, more had left the burrow. The next day, we only found three hanging out in different parts of our yard. We no longer checked on them since our grass was getting long and it was hard to see them.
Derek mowed the yard the other day and they are all gone. I'm sad we never got to pet them as we all so badly wanted to do. I hope they're making it okay on their own. I know they left a little prematurely.
