Last Summer's Model

Last summer this sweet cottontail decided to groom herself on our gravel driveway outside the kitchen window. I'm of the opinion that cottontails are quite possibly the most adorable wild creatures found on our small corner of the world. Wouldn't you agree?

I can't wait to see this year's models. (If they agree to stay out of the garden I'm planning.) Spring is coming even though snow is forecast for our neck of the woods this coming weekend. I'm hoping this is just a vile rumor...we received 14 inches during (what I had hoped was) our final snowfall of winter. Good thing the shovel is still by the back door!
