Baby Bunnies

(Ah Gawsh...The pictures are backward)
Friday night We were having a BBQ and fire in the backyard. Ed stumbled upon a hole in the ground. There was something in there but as it was getting dark and we were having a good night...Ed made us leave this unknown animal alone to prevent an emergency room visit. The next day upon further investigation we discovered baby bunnies. I called the Wildlife rehabilitation and they said to sprinkle flour around the den as the mom bunny only comes to feed in the night. So if the flour is messed with the next day we would know that the babies were being cared for. The next day it appeared as if she came back. But the next day and the next the area seemed to be undisturbed. So I called the Wildlife place again and they advised to bring in the babies. Lil ed wanted so badly to keep one. (we did not) Lil Ed and I gathered the babies and took them to the Rehab place. I am hoping they are doing just fine and getting ready to be reintroduced into the wild.
