No birds, only buns

I still haven't gotten around to going anyplace to see any birds. I've only seen the crazy starlings that hang around my house in the early morning, making crazy high-pitched noises. These guys are way noisier than the starlings at the Marsh House. The chimney swifts seems to be leaving, however, which is good. One or two swifts is really cool. Six or seven? A delight. A flock of ten or more, all cheeping at the tops of their little birdy lungs all the time? Kinda annoying, actually.

So the other morning I was feeling kinda headachy and sick, so Niblet took it upon himself to give me a little TLC, in the way that kitties and doggies usually do: he slept next to me and snuggled me.


I wanted to stay with him all day long, but I had to go in to work.

I'm hoping to get a little birding in this weekend. There's a marsh right near Penn State called Millbrook Marsh that's supposed to be pretty decent, and I'm hoping this cold weather and rain will drive some shorebirds down a little.

Is there really anything cuter than a bunny butt?

Hope you're feeling better.

I must say I think Niblet is one of the most handsome bunnies I have ever seen. Love his white and black fur. So very pretty.

I LOVE Niblet. That FACE is so....kissable. Snuggle with him and feel better, Delia.

I need some birds, too.

I would have to squish that bunny butt. I'm a butt squeezer. I'm not proud of it, but there it is.
