Rabbits

noreply@blogger.com (Chris Long) — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 09:43:00 +0000

Ben had a pet white rabbit that lived in a hutch in Granddad's garden, the rabbit manged to escape and lived "wild" in Granddad's garden for ages, suddenly a herd of strange coloured baby rabbits appeared, kind of a ginger colour. Sadly the ex pet rabbit has now disappeared but the ginger ones are thriving, so much so that they have now moved into our garden as well and have started to eat their way through our flower bed!! The dog chases them away when he is encouraged to but this does not seem to scare them away for long!!
