Yet another bunny update

You guys sick of these yet?

The bunnies left the nest first thing Tuesday morning, but apparently haven't gone far. This guy was hanging out by the back door when I returned from walking Molly and Mama Bunny has been by the past two days and I've seen her nursing the little ones (I've only spotted 3 babies out and about at one time, there were seven in the nest, I assume the others are around). By the way, if you're curious, bunnies nurse when on their backs, half under the mom, with their feet kicking in the air as they nurse.

Anyway... here's the little guy, on his way to being a grown up bunny.

Much cuter now than in your first pic. :)

Yeah, they were sort of ugly as wee little babies.

I love the bunny pics. I'm definitely more cheerful just seeing them.

How could anybody get sick of bunny posts?! He is so cute!

Very cute. The nursing sounds adorable. Have you gotten a picture of that?

Awwwwwww.

I think they are just so adorable. Once they leave for good I'll get the photos off my camera and do a picspam showing their growth and development. :)

I know, right? BUNNIES!

Isn't he?

Probably in a few days, after they leave for good, I'll get the photos off my camera and do a picspam showing their growth and development. :)

Gssh! Look at the wabbit! *tickles it*

I will never been sick of little bunnies. I want all the bunnies!

I tried very hard to, but didn't have much luck, especially since I didn't want to go outside and possibly spook them. :(

Isn't it adorable? :)

Ah, so you can't get that close. Darn. :)

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2013-06-21 04:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah :( and trying to snap shots through a window hasn't been very successful

AWWWWWW! I agree with an earlier poster that they do look much cuter now.

I thought they were cute as the teeny tiny babies, but yeah, nowhere NEAR as adorable as they are now. It was so hard not to go try to pick it up and cuddle it!

[identity profile] adafrog.livejournal.com 2013-06-21 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Darn.

[identity profile] jacketpotato.livejournal.com 2013-06-22 07:55 am (UTC)(link)
OH MY GOD DUDE!!! How do you survive close encounters with such cuteness?!?

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2013-06-22 03:05 pm (UTC)(link)
These adorable little guys might just be my downfall

Aaaaaah, I can hardly stand the cute.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2013-06-22 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
It is SO adorable, I wish I could get a picture, but I don't want to go outside and scare them off and trying to take photos through the window doesn't work so well but serious, so ridiculously cute!

Simply precious!!! You are so lucky to be able to watch them grow up safely. Are they wild bunnies or domestic rabbits? Can you pa the mummy bunny?

When I was a kid, I had a little veg patch in the big garden, and when it was getting colder at night, I covered my tomato plant -- yes, one plant but it was still covered with tomatoes that ripened every day -- and one morning I pulled back the old blanket so they could get some sun and there was a little nest of baby field mice!! They weren't even as big as my thumb!

I covered it back up, but when I went back a few days later, they were gone -- mummy had moved the somewhere safer and definitely more private!

Good luck with your bunny babies!!!! Please keep the pix coming!!!!

These are wild bunnies. I did pet the babies once or twice when they were in the nest (which I probably shouldn't have done, but they were so cute!) but I'd never even try it with the mama bunny, I'd never be allowed close anyway.

I'm not sure if I'll get many more pictures, and those I do will probably be taken through the window so won't be great, but eventually I'll get the shots I did manage off my camera and make a huge picspam of them all.

There can never be too much bunny-love.

Eventually I'll get all the photos off my camera (the shots I've posted so far have been from my ipod) and do a proper picspam of bunnies :)

He is just too cute for words!

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2013-06-27 01:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Isn't he?

There are at least two still hanging about. One I only catch glimpses of but the other has declared a spot right under a window as his home. Unfortunately that means snapping pictures of him is hard, but I'm trying! And eventually I'll get all the pictures off the camera onto the computer (the previous ones posted have been from my ipod, which is much easier) and have a proper bunny picspam.

*scritches him under the chin*

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2013-06-28 04:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Isn't he adorable?

I think the bunnies have finally moved on, I hope to get my camera to behave and get the photos off of it and onto my computer soon so I can do a proper bunny picspam. :)

*looks forward to it*
