There's nobody here but us wabbits

Wascally wabbits at that.  Happy Easter blipmates. 

I did a bit of google research on the history of the Easter Rabbit.  Google seems to suggest it is a German tradition of the Easter Rabbit going around with a basket of eggs and toys for good children, a bit like Santa Claus.   There are also earlier historical ties to rabbits and fertility.  

Leviticus of course has something to say on rabbits:  The rabbit, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you.

Such a spoilsport don't you think. 



Anyhoo, a very happy Easter to you all from a misty King Edward Park this morning.
