true story

So, the other day, I was outside walking around my house taking pictures of clouds - because you can never have enough cloud pictures (duh).  I was making my way toward the backyard and I walked right up on this sweet little bunny who was just lounging in the shade.


She didn't run away.  She just stayed there lounging and sniffing the air.  I thought she must like me and wanted to be friends.  So I agreed we would be friends and promised her some carrots if she would just let me snap a few more pics.


Eventually, I guess she got bored with my picture taking and decided to do a little sprucing up of her fur.





At this point, my neighbor came out and looked at me a little funny (I suppose I might have been talking to the bunny).  He informed me that the only reason she wasn't running away was because she probably had babies buried nearby and wouldn't leave them.  Well, maybe that was true... 

Or maybe she just liked me.


I decided I'd taken enough pictures and started to walk away.  But my new friend jumped up and looked at me longingly.


"Don't worry," I said.  "I won't forget your carrots."
