    1. Hi John ~ He seems to have survived a few winters so far, so I'm sure he'll be fine :) We usually have fairly mild winters, although it does go below freezing.

    1. Hi Adrian ~ Yes, I could bring him into the garage ~ there are no rabbits in there! I think he'll survive OK. I'll keep watch.

    1. Thanks, Hilary. Oakley has made it through a few winters already, and since it is usually mild here (although we could have some snow), I'm sure he'll be fine. Next year I'm going to move him up out of the way of nibblers :)

    1. Thanks Nikki! I'm sure Oakley will enjoy his winter sleep, and I will wait very patiently for the first signs of buds...months from now... in the spring!
