Yard Bunnies

You’ve heard of dust bunnies.

We have more of them at our home since we got rid of the rugs in favor of the hardwood floors that were sitting under them since the 1920’s when the house was built.

Recently we have been seeing a rather bold bunny in our Lakewood yard.

Here it is savoring our bed of clover.

Although the Chicago Sun-Times ran an article last Sunday featuring the threat of bunnies, let me tell you, I’d rather have bunnies than skunks.

We shut the windows upstairs.

One night this past week, my wife and I awoke smelling a skunk.

I figured a car on Lake Avenue had hit one.

Then I thought of the ones downstairs.

The odor was strongest in the kitchen.

I began to think maybe a skunk had been defending itself in the middle of the night.

So, you can understand why I would prefer bunnies to skunks.
