Wabbits and Coyotes
I am soooo glad it's friday!!

I had a good pay check today! our silly digital guy came today, he was supposed to come tomorrow! So our plans for the evening were a little backed up.
We had to go straight from my work to the bank, then home to let the dogs out change, get something to eat, then we had Jarrotts soccor game.
It was really fun. They are 13yrs olds, Jarrott, plays the goalie, but Sue said he has a bad cough and wasn't feeling well, so he wasn't into runnning like he should.
We were out by Red Mountain High School. It was cold, but we refused to put sweaters on! It's Arizona! It's not supposed to get cold!
Anyway at I didnt' notice it till the end of the game, Sue pointed out all the little rabbits at the end of the field. She said sometimes they fill the field! So Carl and I went to get a closer look - it was all good till he sneezed! They didn't scatter too far! They were SOOO Cute! They had little white tails. I thought they were jack rabbits. I did not have my camera! I was so mad! I told Carl I would LOVE to come out here and get some pics of wildlife! We could see something lurking in the bushes. All we could see was the butt and what looked like a tail. But it was ALOT bigger than the bunnies. The bunnies were little and very round!
Sue said they get coyotes and javalina? (don't know if I spelled that right!) they stay on the other side of the fence.
I came home and had to look up what kind of bunnies they were! I am going to try and go back tomorrow, see if we can get more pics, If I can talk Carl into it!
Here is a pic I found on line, I think they are desert cottontails. They weren't jack rabbits like I first thought, they had different ears and white fluffy tail, like a cotton tail. Here is a desert cotton tail.
I am allergic to the deseret weed grass, it's givin me a terrible fit!
Sometimes I forget I live in the desert!
