Morning Walk and Muffins!

Hi..thought you'd like to join us on our morning walk......we walk down to the local field with the granddog every morning..but watch your step in some areas, lots of rocks..there is a path but it narrows sometimes....
Here are a few things we saw this morning...

we watched bunnies playing among the rocks.....

lots of bunnies.....and of course with the bunnies, comes the predators...this little kestral wasn't looking for bunnies though..they are as big as he is!.

after the walk, we usually come home to breakfast..this morning, I made Oatmeal Sunflower Raisin muffins...

Yummy! and a healthy breakfast..full of good stuff, so tasty...
here is the recipe...
