Bunnies Everywhere!

So we have a lot of rabbits in our neighborhood. Living between a large park and a forest preserver makes for a significant amount of wildlife at times. Last night was just plain ridiculous however. After turning off the main drag and into our neighborhood we counted 14 rabbits in the about 4 blocks it takes to get to our house, plus one more in the back yard.

15 bunnies sighted in under 3 minutes! The previous record was 11. We've had as many as 6 in our yard at one time!

There are also plenty of chipmunks and squirrels, The the occasional raccoon or deer. And a couple months ago a beaver just down the street!
