O/T Update On Our Backyard Bunny Nest

Just wanted to say, for those that were interested (I tried 3 times to go back to "My Activity" and I wrote what happened, and each time I hit "submit" it wasn't there! Never had that happen before, so I had to start a new thread) I wasn't able to post pics of the babies, and here's why.

I had said that as soon as I could, I would post pics of our baby bunnies. Well, I'm in MD and we got that freak cold snap too, also torrential rain.

Tuesday am, I went out (no rain, sun out) to check the nest and take pictures, but it was empty! {#emotions_dlg.sad} (there were 5 of them left)

I think thought that the mama moved the nest, because it was as clean and neat as could be. Didn't look like an animal got in there and got to the babies.

Also, every bit of "fur" (board wouldn't let me use the word "fl*ff" LOL) and every piece of straw was completely gone, leading me to think (and hope) that due to the cold temps and terrible rain, the mama moved them to maybe under our very nearby shed (higher ground).

I hope so! I guess we'll know in a few week if we see baby bunnies running around in our back yard.

Still keeping the dogs in check!! It's a pain, but what can you do????
