Baby Hopper

Look what we found in our yard the other night. We called a local wildlife rescue to see if this little guy was too small to be put back in the woods on his own. We were told he was a "hopper" because his eyes were open and he was able to hop and explore, and we were advised to put him back in the woods. I was amazed at how he followed the girls. Every time they stepped away from him, he would hop after them. We enjoyed him for a little while then brought him to the woods behind our house and said goodbye.

Awww! That is so sweet. I love this time of year when the baby bunnies are leaving their "nests." I have a funny story about our experience with some baby bunnies that i'll have to share with you sometime.
