Momdigr's wascally wabbit. At my feet.

Attachment 53331

Weird angle is due to Pete being on his hind legs, directly under the camera.

Here comes Peter Cottontail hoppin' down the bunny trail.
I don't know how to make those musical notes, Oh Well.

Hah!

Buffalo wings!!!

He took a grape out of Momdigr's hand yesterday.

She said "I just about squealed!".

:D

Got it on video the other day:

She's worked on that wabbit for a good couple months, and, now, he comes to us when we don't even know he's around. Just happen to look down, there's a wabbit at your ankle.

I named him Pete. Not after Peter Cottontail, but, after Pete Hogwallop in "O, Brother Where Art Thou?".

'Course it's Pete. Look at 'im.

Outstanding, patience and kindness sooths the savage beast.
but be careful, when you least expect it they go for the juggler.:skull:

Thank goodness none of us are jugglers.

OMG.
I rewatched that about twenty times.

I can see where you get your loveliness (and love of animals) from now.
Give your Mum my love.

Lucky capture 'cause they be really fast. ;)

Done.:D

Working through my photo blog of my visit to Harewood House.
You'll get why I've left you hanging there if you read other threads.
Not-so-good family news means I'm not up to happy jolly rememberings of a day out.

But I came across these and I did smile.
Because I'd mentioned in the Nightmare thread that I'm quite fond of the little old English (British? European?) wasp.

With my stupid immune system - even before I compromised it with cirrhosis - I get a horrible reaction to a sting. But it's nothing really. Not like people who have to have epi-pens for bee stings or owt. I just itch longer and harder than most people, swell more and get oozy. Ditto cat bites, ant stings, nettles bramble scratches etc etc. Yeah, it's really classy.

AnyWAY.
Had a cream tea. Part of my birthday treat.
It was ridiculously expensive and I savoured every mouthful.

So why not share it?
Mr Wasp came looking.
Attachment 53433

I moved the pot of jam away from me (see above re itching and oozing) and said, "Have at it, mate."
Attachment 53431

Mr Wasp had a mate. As in a pal, a chum, a bromance. Wasps don't do the sexy thing. But I'd've been down with gay wasps if it had worked out that way.
Attachment 53432

Not waving, but drowning.
Actually, no Stevie Smiths were harmed in this series of photographs. Both of them were probably sugar-high, but neither were trapped.

Buy one, get a half-dozen free.

Snake is in big trouble. Maybe dead snake slithering.
