It must be Spring.  Last night on my run a little baby bunny ran across our path.  Today in the canal there were a bunch of ducklings with their mother.  All baby animals are born in the spring, right?

I don't know about all animals, but it does seem to be that way in the wild. Maybe living in captivity changes them. Thus the phrase "reproducing like bunnies."

It not spring in Utah. Half a foot of snow in my yard this morning.

Good gracious! Well, if it's any consolation, it's supposed to rain today. And I rode my bike to work!

When is your birthday?

From ChrisM on Sat, Apr 09, 2011 at 08:54:32 from 82.26.212.49

now I have moved to the countryside, I see loads of wild life but often just dead animals on the side of the road

Mr Springy comes to mind, when the olypmics are awarded to springifilld and the spring keeps going in homer's eye

From ChrisM on Sun, Apr 10, 2011 at 05:58:20 from 82.26.212.49

that's a cool NAME for a CAT allie! even if you had not said CAT i would still know it was a CAT!

From flatlander on Sun, Apr 10, 2011 at 08:39:34 from 76.31.26.153

In my neighborhood the ducklings don't last long. Too many subsurface carnivores.

From Burt on Sun, Apr 10, 2011 at 13:24:36 from 72.223.90.79

April - I have no idea what that means, but I do know that the stork brings babies.

Melody - My birthday is Feb. 31, 1982.

Chris - my favorite part of that episode is when Bart insults everyone on the Olympic committee.

allie - Are you sure Ginger is not a chicken? Also, we have another dog named Cinnamon. She got so sick this past week, we thought she was going to die.

Mark - gators?

Around here I only see 5 lbs rats crossing my path. Must be spring in Baltimore City!

Liar!

From Burt on Sun, Apr 10, 2011 at 19:13:56 from 72.223.90.79

Geez Claudio! You should bring a croquet mallet with you.

Melody - I'm not a liar. I'm a joker. hee hee. Marathon Dreamer and I have the same birthday. Only one of us is three years older than the other.
