One pill makes you larger, and one pill makes you small

Go ask Alice, when she's ten feet tall

And if you go chasing rabbits, and you know you're going to fall
Tell 'em a hookah-smoking caterpillar has given you the call

And call Alice, when she was just small

When the men on the chessboard get up and tell you where to go
And you've just had some kind of mushroom, and your mind is moving low




Go ask Alice, I think she'll know

When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead
And the white knight is talking backwards
And the red queen's off with her head
Remember what the dormouse said
Feed your head, feed your head

I think they did it as Jefferson airplane first and later as Jefferson starship.
But any one who managed to survive those day, would straggle to remember little details today.

Some nice work there. One of the first rabbits I ever shot was a full jet-black one and I got it right under the throat/chin and it was a luckily, a clean hit. Never thought to preserve/keep the skin. Always thought rabbits were rabbits and a black one was, common! Now I know better.

I missed a jet black rabbit once, it was beside a regular one in the mouth of a hole and I thought it was just the shadow until I shot its its friend and it didn't move. Then it buggered off while I was reloading.

Have shot a pure white and a white+chestnut saddleback though which must be pretty rare too.

If you're cunning I'm sure you can dig a pit and fill it with Watties so he falls in and is marinaded.

Nice.

I once sat up in a seat after a roe buck in the east of England in a wood named Black Rabbit Warren. I didn’t think anything of it until a black rabbit wandered down the ride. Made me smile.

Years before that I shot a completely white (not albino) rabbit in the Pentland Hills outside Edinburgh. Looked good in my Black lab’s mouth, but I don’t know where the photo I took went. Felt a bit bad after shooting it.

We currently have about 10 black rabbits on our 3 acre lifestyle block.
There has been a black male (we think!) hanging around for a couple of years, and now he must have got to the stage of mating with his own offspring as the recent litters (?) are mostly black (e.g. 4 black, 1 brown)
