Living out on this harsh summer desert, I put out a water dish for the creatures. Soon it beat taco bell as the big place to hang out. Critter central. So my next plan was to put a webcam right by the dish to see how it went. Following are about 10 minutes of activity. I'm still playing with the setup to reduce the glare.. Hopefully later pics will have better quality. Anyway,, first the bunnies. There are currently 7 to 10 who hang by the dish. All but one drink as a bunny should quick , furtive, all business, they just drink. But this one pictured is a little off. he stands in the dish itself and sort of bites the water, and unlike the others who scram when they finish,, this one has to check out the camera <_<

Then the bunny sets up by the dish to stand guard. The only problem is he is facing away and 30 quail sneak up behind him and start drinking. He has no clue til a quail flutters a wing jostliing for position. The bunny about jumps out of his skin.

The fun part is sprinkling salt on the slugs! makes'em taste better!
-------------------- Today's socio-political climate is rock solid proof that Adam and Eve weren't prospectors.
If they were they'd have eaten the snake instead of the apple and we'd still be in heaven.... |
