Hippie Dippy Weather Bun

What's up with mom?

*

You know that humans like to convince themselves that they have clean paws when it comes to killing.  Well thanks to you two lazy bones mom had to "dispatch" some rabbits that got into the garden.

*

What are we supposed to do?  The rabbits are already gone?  For heaven's sake, go pee    on the fence of something.  make critters at least think that a predator lives here!

*

This is so unfair.  We have to do everything.

*

Hey man, why'd you have to do me like that?  Why did I have to "do" you?  You were in my garden, you little runt, eating all my vegetables!

*

Like, nobody "owns" food, man.  It's just there when you need it.  Eat what you want.  Those things weren't there by accident.  They were there because I worked and I built and I cultivated!

*

Sheesh.  Histrionics much?

*

You may have been mean to me, but I know I'll be right with the Spirit in the Sky.  Oh no.  You ate out of my garden.  You were a bad bunny.  No Bunny Heaven for you.  You are going to DOGGY Heaven!

*

Noooooo!

*

What do you think they'll give us to play with next?

*

Now you know why God was so ticked about the Garden of Eden.

*

If you look at the base of the pinwheel, you can see a nest of baby bunnies. Murphy is definitely not a predator at heart.

Geordie

My mom was trying to get Geordie to look at the camera so I could take his picture. She said “bunny” to get his attention, and this is what happened. Geordie was my hunter.

A lot of people have tried to make me feel guilty about protecting my garden, but if there are no checks and balances, rabbits can quickly get out of control. Australia was devastated by a rabbit invasion. An island in Greece housed prosperous vineyards for centuries until rabbits destroyed them. Bunnies may be cute, but they are prolific and ravenous.

    HAHAHAHAHA!!! Sweet Murphy face! 🙂 Yes, THE wrong word to say to Geordie! 🙂 Your 3 Boys’ reaction to you cracks me up! Come on, boys! If you don’t do your job then Mom has to do what Mom has to do! 😉 😀

    As Mr. E. Fudd might say, “Ooh! Those wascally wabbits!” and Be vewy vewy quiet, I’m hunting wabbits.” 🐰🐇

    Great title! Thanks for the laughs! 😛
    (((HUGS))) ❤️❤️❤️❤️
    PS…Little Coop wasn’t much of a hunter, but when he was young he loved chasing lizards and bunnies off of HIS property! Ha, he always walked the perimeter of the property every day to see what was happening. 🙂

    You know it’s city-dwellers who give you grief for pest-control, right? We’d all starve on our own, or be killed. Here in SF, you get push-back if you dare complain about coyotes roaming around, even when they attack pets and children. “They were here first.” [As for me, all my grandparents were farmers. I can remember my grandma going out into the yard to snatch a chicken for dinner and swing it over her head to break its neck. 😏 ]
