Sherrifhall bunnies

Post by SoupDragon » 17 Apr 2007, 15:12

Anyone else notice how sleek and plump the rabbits are on the roundabout at Sherrifhall?

I go past most Mon, Tues and Thursdays.

They sit and nibble and never seem afraid of the cars.

The Clangers have evolved a theory that the rabbits jump out at night and devour cars, hence the odd bumper, bit of exhaust lying around.
Was musing on that this morning, when I noticed a pair of glasses lying on the verge :shock:

eeek they're coming to get us!

We used to regularly see a black bunny on the verge near the Sheriffhall roundabout but haven't seen him for a while now :cry:

Think if I caught any of those bunnies they'd fight back! They are big!
And the Clangers would want them for pets

I wouldn't have minded with last year's rampaging crop! We do need a couple of hedgehog though, if you happen to see any... :D

Thats not something I've seen round here, did think about it as theres so many snails and slugs.
my mum used to have one came to visit when she stayed in Musselburgh, and several when she stayed down the Borders
