Anyway, word spread quickly that baby rabbits were in our backyard, and before we knew it, half the kids in the neighborhood were there holding and playing with the bunnies. Kids came in waves, held a bunny, then ran home to ask their parents if they could keep the bunnies as pets. (Every parent said no, including this one.)
After we played with the bunnies (and surely smothered them in human scent) we put them back in their nest in the grass so the mama bunny can find them tomorrow, and hopefully take them far, far away.

What that post linked to my blog doesn't mention is that it was always dark outside when Elliott got home from work... so guess who ended up getting to dispose of the frozen stiff rabbit that had guts spilling out of it?
