 The Rabbit Goes Duck Hunting

Image Source : rabbit holes and reality

  • A boastful rabbit claimed to do whatever anyone else could do
  • He was able to make the other animals believe him
  • The otter claimed he ate ducks, so the rabbit made the same claim
  • The otter challenged the rabbit to try duck hunting
  • While the otter was distracted, the rabbit made a noose with some peeled tree bark
  • He dove, and swam down until he choked and tried again until he caught a duck
  • He tied the noose around the duck and the duck flew off
  • The rabbit tried to hold on to the noose but the rabbit could not hold on any longer and had to let go
  • He fell into a hollow tree stump and was unable to get out
  • After several days, he heard children playing and he began to sing
  • The children went to get their father
  • The father cut a hole in the tree stump after the rabbit said the man will be able to see him better
  • After the hole was big enough, the rabbit ran off

There are many that I would say are my favorites from different genres.   I will listen to  just about any kind of music but if I had to choose a favorite, it would be classic soul and R&B. If you put my music player on shuffle, you might get a little bit of everything.  I don't have any hobbies but hopefully I will find some when I have the time. I have always wanted to try knitting an
