We have an explosion of baby animals!
- Yesterday morning I spied a fledgling robin hopping around between our house and the neighbor's.
- Yesterday afternoon I heard a very suspicious peeping racket coming from the cherry tree. And I had seen a male cardinal around a lot lately, hectoring the cat through the living room window. About 30 seconds of looking and I found the nest. I have since seen (and been yelled at by) both papa and mama cardinal but the nest is up too high and too wedged into the branches to see the babies.
- This morning I saw a baby bunny, probably about two-hands-ful sized, hopping around between the houses. I should really say that VIOLET saw the bunny and alerted me to its presence. I was pretty sure there was a rabbit warren around somewhere because I knew we had a mated pair of bunnies around and where there's a boy bunny and a girl bunny, I feel pretty confident that there will be baby bunnies.
