I have been aware of the rabbits who have built their home in my backyard for about 2 months (ever since Peyton has been out of the picture and the backyard is once again a haven). I have avoided mowing directly over their large hole (where the mother enters) and the small hole where I can often see wiggling under the fur cover that tops the hole. Yesterday, I was out picking lilacs for my classroom when I heard a little squeal and saw the tiniest little bunny take 3 awkward bounds away from his hole. I must have stepped too close to its hole or even worse, on top of it. Anyway, I snapped a few pictures of the cute little guy and hoped that his mom would find him and return him to his hole. I knew that if I touched him, mother rabbit would abandon or worse, kill him. When I returned from the sweltering 90 degree day, he was nowhere to be seen, but there was some wiggling under the fur cover.
