(How hot has it been here? So hot that rabbits are "splooting" [hunkering down on cooler bare ground in plain sight of people and other potential predators] right in front of my front door. Such weather used to be highly unusual here in my hometown, but has become the new "normal" these last few years. One that neither I nor the rabbits will get used to.)

Aww... I'd like that thing-to-do for my rabbits too! They thrive best in nature. Happy WW! Mine's here ~ Ms. Donyarific
ReplyDeleteI love that word SPOOTING!

I assume they keep close to your house because predators are less likely to come close. The deer do that here when the coyotes are around.
ReplyDeleteHadn't thought of that, though I do see deer doing it too, normally in human-frequented places. It may also be that bare ground is just more common around us.
ReplyDeleteLove it.
