One of the things I love about Spangle, Porridge and Sprat is that they are possibly the most sproingiest of bunnies I have ever met. They don't just perform your standard binky - it's binkies with extra flair, poise and performance. It really is like watching ballet.
If ever you wanted proof that A Hutch is Not Enough then these guys are it. Given a bit of space they'll show you exactly what those powerful back legs do best. In fact, despite their small stature, they are good examples of why those rubbish two foot high runs are not enough, such is the impressive height attained by their skilful leaps and spins.
Capturing their efforts has proved slightly tricky, as their binkying antics are very random and spontaneous. Plus, nothing makes them more suspicious of me, and therefore puts the dampeners on their enthusiasm, than pointing a camera at them!
But I had a go. Here for your pleasure (and mine!), my attempts to document the sproing of 2011.
Porridge...
"I'm just warming up..."
"Landing is the hardest part of course!"
"See ya!"...Spangle...
"Weeeeeeee!"...and champion sproinger, but the hardest to capture in a photo, Sprat...
"Next up - a triple somersault!"
"Floating on air, baby!"Oh, and of course Whisky didn't want to be left out, but he can't really achieve the the same heights, bless him...
"Ehn!"
