Mr and Mrs Cottontail visit Mrs McLay's Property

Mr and Mrs Cottontail have settled in at K. C. Bunnyborough and are enjoying living in their luxury caravan home.   Most days rabbits visit them and want to have a look through the caravan.   Mr and Mrs Cottontail would like to go to a church.   They have been told that there is a church on Mrs Mclay's property and also they may see a kiwi amongst the animals that live freely on her property.   So, today they are going to visit Mrs Mclay's property.




They are greeted inside the gate by a grey kangaroo and a brown kangaroo who advise them to leave the car here and walk ahead to the church.


They follow the path to the church and go in but there is no one around.


After spending time in the church they continue hopping on the path until they come to a Windmill and there is no one there either.   What a quiet place this is.  


 
 They continue hopping along the path hoping to see a kiwi when
they come across two toads sitting outside a toilet.   "Good afternoon can you tell us the best place to look to see a kiwi?" asks Mr Cottontail. " The biggest toad croaked. "Yes, continue hopping towards the lake.   There is another toilet there and Mrs McLay has set out a cup of tea for you both."    "Thank you." Mr Cottontail replied smiling. 



After hopping some distance they meet two  ducks,  "Good afternoon ducks, we are looking for a kiwi."  said  Mr Cottontail.   "Quack, Quack," replied the ducks together, "Just quietly hop a bit further  and you will see two kiwis."                                                                             





Mr and Mrs Cottontail hop quietly down the path and stop because they  hear some rustling and scratching.   "There's a kiwi." Mrs Cottontail whispers to Mr Cottontail.   (Actually, there are two kiwis in this picture.   Can you see the other one?)


Mr and Mrs Cottontail have hopped a long way towards the lake when they find the cup of tea set out for them.   "Ah, here it is," squeals Mrs Cottontail in delight.  They sit down to enjoy the cup of tea in peace.   Suddenly, they hear a gurgling noise coming from the lake.



"Oh!' Mrs Cottontail gasps, "There's a big fish."   They both put down their cups and hop over to the edge of the lake to see a beautiful shiny fish come up out of the water and  dive down again.   "Oh, what a wonderful day we have had on Mrs McLay's property ... seeing the kiwi and meeting the animals."   Mrs Cottontail  says as they hop hand in hand back to their car.

When Mr and Mrs Cottontail arrived at Mrs Mclay's property there was a kiwi by the kangaroos  that  followed  them around and is also in the photo with the toads and the photo with the ducks.
