Can't we all just get along?

The squirrels are getting used to me. This was only about five feet away (though I was up higher, on the porch). I kept making kissy noises at him, and it didn't phase him one bit. He ignored me.

The bunnies are much more timid, and oh so sneaky. I had no idea he was there for a minute or two. You have to be vewy quiet when you're shooting wabbit....huhuhuhu.

Just a few minutes ago, I witnessed one of the funniest things ever to happen in our front yard. We had about three squirrels and two bunnies hanging out, chowing down on whatever they could find.

Suddenly, one of the squirrels decides he doesn't like the looks of one bunny, so he charges him. Startled, the bunny jumps a couple of feet straight up in the air, only to land on top of the squirrel. Which made the bunny jump straight up again, then take off.

I laughed so hard my face hurt. You may have had to be there, but trust me, it was comical.
