In case you haven’t noticed, we enjoy watching the critters that visit our yard. I think they like it here, and the fact that Maddie won’t go outside if she’s not attached to us, makes the yard safer for them. We don’t feed the bunnies, but they do enjoy grazing in our yard (including certain tulips).
Despite the fact that Maddie is on a leash, the bunnies have always run to the opposite side of the yard from us. Lately, at least one bunny is letting us get closer. We talk to it, tell it it’s a good bunny, and I tell it not to worry about Maddie. They (there are three) seem to understand. Sometimes, I imagine they are talking back to us.
“You guys have the best salad bar. I’m glad you don’t kill the weeds like your neighbors do; these leaves are tasty.”
