The bunnies have been enjoying some of the benefits of Spring - well, mostly the dandelions and fresh long grass. Ebony still doesn't quite trust the dandelions, and approaches their sticky stems with caution, but Dijon vacuums them up and even appears to smile.
They have enjoyed some time outside on the patio, and Ebony scrabbles on the glass of the patio door most days from about 7am, asking to go out, whatever the weather.
On cold days, we have to distract her by bringing in treats from the garden.
They are spending more time relaxing, either together or separately, and also grooming together.

They have also been busy exploring under our new armchair - we finally plucked up the courage to replace our 21yr old one, knowing full well it would be damaged at some point. Within the first week a small piece of the corner 'piping' had been removed, and the seat was in serious risk of being destroyed from underneath, requiring corrugated plastic reinforcement. The battle continues.
Dijon is not quite as adept at slithering under, and appears to be stuck on his first attempt, but here's a photo of him emerging.

A couple of times each day there is a chase from her, no aggression, and Dijon is generally far more active since they've been together, which has helped him to lose some of his excess weight...
... although all this extra movement is hard work for a bunny who will have his 8th Birthday next month.
