This is one of Peter Rabbit's bunnies. His name is Mopsy, and he is one of three bunnies born earlier this spring. We are just beginning to get glimpses of Mopsy and his two siblings, as they keep to themselves most of the time. However, he made an appearance tonight during our Monday afternoon Mincha/Maariv service.

We hope he grows big and strong before the upcoming Maine winter sets in.
