It's approaching Easter, I think, based on the chocolate bunnies in the stores. But all the thirteen years I've lived here, I've never seen a rabbit. Until tonight, that is. At least, once there was a road kill rabbit a few blocks from here. But nothing alive.
Abbey and I were walking across the pedestrian cut through next to the park, and a bunny hopped away from us. It was only slightly bigger than a squirrel and with grey fur that could be the same. But it had a huge white cotton tail. It ran to the fence to get into the O'Brien's yard, and hopped right into the fence and fell down. But it made another two hops and then it was under the fence and off down the hill.
Many raccoons and millions of squirrels. I can recognize my individual squirrels some times. A couple of times turtles in the yard. This year, invisible deer have totally eaten the tulips.
But today was my first live rabbit.
