Welcome to the Twilight Zone. . .


I caught a glimpse of this little angora rabbit at the Shepherd's Harvest Sheep & Wool Festival yesterday in Lake Elmo. I have never felt anything so soft either. But his ears were too much because I'm old enough to remember how we had to manipulate rabbit ears --with foil wrappers--to 'bring in' the show we wanted to watch on t.v. All very high tech.

This guy is my entry on Camera Critters today. I hope he makes your day. See Misty Dawn's site for more critters that will make you smile.

If you hadn't captioned it, I'm not sure I would have known what I was looking at.

He doesn't look like a critter at all - just a pile of fluff.

Darling bunny! Not at all like the rabbits (each on nicknamed Fang the Merciless) that are currently ravaging our garden.

That festival looks like fun -- did you buy anything?

anno said...

Oops. Make that each one...

Ha I remember those as well.. My dad and my sister bred rabbits for showing as well as the 'pot'. I remember going to local 'Fur & Feather' shows as a child.

I'm not a "camera critterer" yet, but I wanted to say I enjoyed this fun post. What a beauty. I remember the rabbit ears and foil, too. I got a little wistful last night when the ad on TV said no more rabbit ears in a few months. Too bad nobody figures out how to make the new technology work with the old equipment.

Thanks for stopping by my blog.
