Off With His Head!!!

Well, on Saturday we flew Veruka for the last time. I must say, it was a great way to end our time with her. After a long, rocky season, Veruka got a double! The first rabbit was one she saw that we did not. the second, however, was even better. We noticed she was looking down at something, and began to work the area where she was looking. The next thing we know, she was inbound....with Aaron in her path. Both Brandi and I called out, as Aaron turned just in tomw to see her eyes. He ducked, and I am pretty sure she would have hit him had he not, just in time for her to crash a bunny right in front of him, between us. It was awesome! I think that was the closest I have ever been to a kill, and I am sure it was for Aaron as he had to change his pants afterward :). We decided to end her season on that positive note, and now she is in the mew getting fat for her release next weekend. I tear up just thinking of letting her go! She went to Dr. Moore on Monday, and got the all clear health wise, so that is it. The end of an era. I hope that she goes out to make beautiful babies as magnificant as she is.
Katana's weight is coming up nicely, no feathers yet. :(
