Why thank you very much, Lily! I am happy to oblige. These 10 just bounced into my head like a bunch of floppy bunnies. I did visit your friend Hannah’s page and put in an additional two entries there in response to her challenge. I did love the water picture she put there.
Many blessings!

Thanks so much! I saw your entries and I thought those ones were cool. Many blessings to you too!
(Floppy bunnies… huh, that’s a new one! XD We have wild bunnies up around our house; they don’t flop though…) XD
We used to have domestic cotton-tail rabbits, which were usually a little floppy when they hopped around on the grass. On my granddad’s farm, however, there were wild jackrabbits that were lean and had longer legs and sort of bounded through the fields, chewing on my granddad’s cotton. These were a menace. Have you ever seen the movie Watership Down, based on the book by English Author Richard Adams? (Not the Netflix version. Netflix tends to mess up everything. We got rid of it.)
@obrian-of-the-surface-world
No, I haven’t seen either movies, though I read the book (actually, that was a while back. Probably needs a reread soon.) Who did the non-Netflix version of the movie?
Oh yeah, the rabbits in our backyard are pretty lean too. When they sit up on their hind legs, they almost look like mini kangaroos!
Hi Lily,
The version I saw was actually made in 1978. The animation is mixed with the Legend at the beginning appearing almost like Aztec art, and then shifting into more traditional animation with a blend of watercolour backgrounds. The main character “Hazel” is voiced by John Hurt.
Here’s the blurb.
Watership Down is a 1978 British animated adventure-drama film, written, produced and directed by Martin Rosen and based on the 1972 novel by Richard Adams.
It is a powerful story and reminds me of the story of Moses and the Exodus seeking a safe promised land. It is suspenseful and moving as well as comical in parts. I wish more movies were still made like that. I believe it is available to rent online for about $4 bucks. I need to buy a copy of it. I think that is about $15.
