"Baby" is finally getting some food with the bullies gone! A sibling had just taken off and there was plenty of food!....

PM look at the camera and it's STAR....

Up close, the plastic liner is still in the nest!!....
A very short clip of what was going on outside in AM. If we were on the roof or in a tree we could see at least 3 juvies at a time circling around, chirping, & grazing over the treetops!.....

Baby Bunny 8-10-09

This is the nest! Just a depression in middle of backyard....

Here's Baby B who emerged 8-10-09. Newborns of course wouldn't have this much fur & you can't see the little tail, but the ears should be a good identifier....

MT nest. We only saw one baby....

Here's Spotty!!!! 7-8-11

Surprises at Chelsea Office today! Tiny fawn finally reappeared in front of the building. It had been seen about an hour earlier running next to the pond in back....

Starting to disappear in the field towards the holly tree....
A half an hour later, a small path in the plants was followed to determine the
direction Spotty had travelled. Surprise!!There it was resting under the tree. No one moved....
Spotty never flinched when a green bottle fly landed on forehead.....
