I took updated photos of most of the baby bunnies today. I missed Gretchen's litter and the newest colony babies, but I think I covered everyone else. I'm working on getting updated photos posted to the rabbits page, but didn't get done with it all today. Hopefully I can finish getting everything updated tomorrow. Here's a photo of Cinnabun, just because she's adorable. Today I was able to re-plant the strawberry bed. Since none of the strawberries actually came up, I decided to plant tomatoes, peppers, watermelon, and an eggplant. These were seedlings that never got transplanted, and weren't going to do anything this year anyway. So if they can make food in the short amount of time left this year, great. And if they don't, at least I tried. Some of the plants really don't look very happy right now, but I'm hoping tomorrow will have them perking back up. I've noticed lately that Bufflehead keeps coming right up to me, and I feel his head feathers tickle my ankles as he cocks his head back and forth trying to see through his headdress. This morning #3 and I attempted to give him a pony tail so he could see the world. I have to say, we weren't the only ones thinking he looked a little funny. The geese stopped chattering to stare and cock their heads as he strutted by, and even the other chickens stared at him. I wonder what they were thinking. It didn't take long before he managed to shake the loose ponytail out and revert to his normal rock star hair. I really adore this bird. Won't someone please adopt him so he will have better predator protection and a heated coop? He is such a character, and so friendly. I adore Bufflehead.
