Since we have had a digital camera now, we have accumilated a large number of images, and have organized them into the following categories. You'll notice that the older pictures are crummy in quality - the newer ones are quite nice, since we now have a Nikon Coolpix 990. Stay tuned for more images - I'm quite behind in processing them for the web.

As you can imagine, the bunnies are just WAY too cute, and before we know it, we'll have to buy another hard drive to store all the images. Since we doubt anyone else is quite as obsessed with these bunnies are we are, we will understand if you think we're a bit crazy.. but we're happy this way, really. :-)

NOTE: Many of the older pictures show the bunnies near house plants. When we first got the bunnies, we didn't realize that most houseplants are indeed toxic to rabbits. Since then, we never let our bunnies run in areas where there are plants within reach. They can nibble the bark off of a tree, munch fallen leaves, or bite the blossoms off of a plant in no time flat, and since bunnies can't vomit, the result could be tragic. Unless you're growing herbs or vegetables indoors, don't risk it - keep your bunnies away from all houseplants, including fallen leaves.

We have learned many things from taking these pictures. We have learned for instance, that we tend to take about the same number of pictures of all of the rabbits, which is good. We do tend to take slightly more of Clover, but fewer of hers come out well, since she's usually hopping away or "busy".

Also, the most interesting pictures by far are the group pictures. It's fun to see the bunnies interact, and wonder what they might be thinking. Of course, we have no idea, but I don't think they mind us imagining.

Another interesting side-effect of this is that we now have a realistic ste of snapshots of bunnies in all different positions physically. Particularly with the rexes, who have a more streamlined form than Gus (marshmellow-man), these pictures could be useful for people who would like to learn how to draw rabbits in anatomically correct positions and with "natural" looking postures. I am looking forward to sketching from the images, just to practice.

As you browse these pictures, notice how each rabbit uses their ears. Gus can't move them as clearly at the others - in his "killer bunny" pose, he's actually listening to something, and this is him putting his ears forward. Clover is extremely articulate with her ears. though generally the ears curved forward position is most common, she is often seen listening directly behind her! Also, when we pick any of the rexes up (Gus might do this too if he could), they usually slicks back her ears. I'm not sure why.

Cleome seems to have the special talent of being able to control her ears independently. We see her with one ear at attention and the other relaxed more often than the others. Perhaps they'll develop this talent as they mature.

You can see elements of this behavior in pictures of the other rabbits as well.

Our rabbits are described in more detail in pages off of our Bunnies page.
