The little black rabbit who adoped this place as his home many years ago and lived a very charmed life what with being fed by me every morning and sunning himself around the house is no more!!!
When we came back yesterday from a drive to Moruya, we found him lying under the big Liquid Amber tree, peacefully expired. I wrapped him in bubble-wrap and gave him a Christian burial next to the old horse, Beauty, who also died of a peaceful old age here.
This morning I went out again with some food looking for him until I realised he was no more. I used to call him simply "Mr Rabbit" and he seemed to answer to is as he hobbled up to me as soon as I called out to him. I guess from now on I should call him Harvey.
I had better stock up on the bubble-wrap as I might be next!
