Photos: Bunnies in May

Photo by Wayne Pridemore

Both bunny photos are from May - but they were in my Unfinished Business file (which is voluminous).

The big bunny with the mouth full of foliage was published. He's from Wayne Pridemore's backyard garden.

After she saw the photo, reader Ginger Hayra, Master Native Plant Steward and Community Gardener, sent in this information:

The plant that the rabbit is eating in the picture appears to be the noxious weed: common groundsel. 

I've been pulling it up along the streets in Innis Arden. Apparently there are not enough rabbits there! : )

PS Kale (and all brassica) buds are quite tasty. Feel free to graze around the edges of Plot #18 at the Sunset Community Garden. But don't tell the rabbits that the purple ones (Kohlrabi) are the best and ever so much better than groundsel!

But soon after, Ginger Hayra's wish was granted. Mary Igl sent in this photo (previously unpublished) of a cute little bunny in Innis Arden.

So groundsel's days are numbered - at least in Innis Arden!
