Toads, Turtles and Bunnies

Last night while I was at back to school night, Allen had the kids in the backyard playing. They were playing by the swingset and our dog Midnight was sniffing under the slide. The kids took a look and found a litter of bunnies. There were about 5 of them, cute as can be. No, we did not keep them. Allen drove the kids out to the Park and they found a safe spot for them. We told the kids they will be fine. We can only hope.
This is one of the many Toads my kids have caught over the summer. This one we didn't keep for more than a few days, but we had others that the kids kept for a week or so.
These are pictures of the box turtle that the kids had for a couple of weeks. They are trying to feed it lettuce in this picture.
Again, I have to say for us not going out of town all summer except to visit Allen's parents in August,the kids still seemed to find many things to entertain themselves. They love exploring and catching all kinds of critters and bugs. We have also had many worms, roly poly's, crickets and grasshoppers as pets this summer.
