Urban Nature
Yesterday while I was writing my blog, I looked out the dining room window and saw our "resident" rabbit nibbling grass under the bird feeder. She wasn't eating any of the flower growth, as far as I could see. I just kept watching her, eating daintly. She finally left the bird feeder area and came to the porch. She went up onto the first step. I watched, full of curiosity. I wondered why she would want to go onto the porch. She sat there for probably less than a minute, then turned around and came down again. Then she ran off toward Carolyn's yard, out of my line of vision. But, if Carolyn doesn't catch her to take her out to a country area, she'll be back again.
This morning as I looked out into my driveway, a chipmunk scampered from the front of the house, across the driveway and into the raspberry patch beside the garage. I like to see the wildlife in my urban area. It's nice to share the space with them, even if they do sometimes eat the plants and make off with more than their share of the birdseed.
