SIGNS, A RABBIT AND A SHADOW


Last June we had a lot of water in places we weren’t used to.

 
No Overnight Parking.

No Parking Anytime.

 Now the water is back where it usually goes.  
But still No Overnight Parking.

Still No Parking Anytime here.
Who’s going to tell the birds and the moose?

 Or the bunnies.  
This one is parking his little cotton tail while he gets his breakfast.

 That is--until this annoying human comes wandering along.

 Can’t a bunny park and get a little fast food without being harassed?

FINE.  I’ll get my munchies elsewhere.

 One final note:  being built low to the ground, 
I just love seeing my long, lean shadow early in the morning.

    Bunnies are just so cute!
    I am quite tall and so my shadow looks like a giantess in the morning!

    Bunnies are notorious for failing to observe the simplest of signs.

    p.s. I, too, am built low to the ground. :-) Makes us harder to knock over!

    I am a tank, squatty body- shorter than that bunny, who is extraordinarily adorable! The signs that tell you not to park in the middle of a raging flood are just so sensible, so glad that they are there, how else would you know??

    That bunny doesn't think you're very low to the ground!

    I can so relate to the beauty of a long shadow! But being low to the ground helps us notice things like bunnies, I think.

    And thanks for your beautiful painting, which arrived today! I plan to become a regular customer, because your work is so very lovely (and inexpensive enough to make me feel a bit guilty, btw.) But until you figure that out ... I could give Leenie originals as gifts? Yes, please!

    Please send all your extra water to me, asap. :)
    I love when irony gets involved in signage.
