Bunnies in the studio!

The Urban Farm at Stapleton joined us in the studio for another all school visit and this time they brought with them RABBITS!
There are lots of different kinds of rabbits.  The two breeds visiting for the day were California rabbits and a french lop.  Tenny and Caroline, from the farm, told us that rabbits come in all sizes. English lops are huge and the smallest rabbits, like the hotot and mini lops, are tiny.

As we watched the bunnies we noticed their ears shifting directions.  It turns out when their ears are up they are paying attention to what is around them, if they are relaxed then their ears often rest on their back and when they are listening, they cock their ears.
It was another wonderful studio day and a great opportunity to connect with these beautiful creatures and one another!
