A Fight!

Guess what I did this morning... I broke up a wildlife fight in my backyard!

Every morning, I look out the back window to see if I can spot Mumma Bunny in the yard somewhere. I caught her movement in the garden when she hopped. Then I looked up the dog run fence, and saw what she was hopping for... the mean old crow was sitting on top of the fence right above her baby bunnies!! AHHH!! So I ran out my side door, got an eye on him, and yelled "CROW! Get OUT!" He flew away to the tree tops, but I was furious, so I got more plastic bags and tied them to the very top of the fence where he was and poofed them up like balloons. Poor Mumma Bunny trying to protect her babies. I told her I was there to help, and she just hung out in the garden watching me out the corner of her eye.

Does anyone know how to make a scarecrow? I think I need one. Maybe I'll check out marthastewart.com, she's gotta have something like that on her website!

The babies are getting so BIG! They actually look like bunnies now. I love the photos. Keep those nasty crows away!
