Josh and his friend were playing in our backyard when they heard little cries. They found a nest of baby bunnies. At first Shaun thought they were mice but then when they popped out you could see their little pointy ears. They are so sweet. We read on-line about these bunny nests and discovered that during the day the mother leaves them so she doesn't bring attention to their predators. She feeds them before sunrise and after dark. Each day my boys have been keeping an eye on them because a few times they have escaped their nest and we put them back in so they wouldn't fall prey. This is the discovery channel right in our own backyard. This is a real live Science class for the boys. And since Josh has been learning in Science about mammals and their environments this is perfect timing.
