Waiting...

A rare time to capture a shot of this active little family member...

Had a nasty fright a couple of days ago, Dick had driven back in the drive but neglected
to shut our front gate. I heard a few cars tooting their horn and went to investigate
and discovered our little treasure up on the road looking at a deceased rabbit (sorry Steph!) who'd
obviously been hit during the night. Cars were speeding past Flossie in both directions!
I called her, and the urgency in my voice had her coming back in the gate immediately and thankfully in one piece!
We have the electric fence turned back on and she has her special collar around
her neck again - which she hates - and she won't go near the fences or
gates while she wears this collar.

Had a similar experience, Yvonne , the heart really beats fast..you could kill them at the time but when they are back all you can do is hug them...And that is a beautiful work of her...V
