The other morning, while enjoying a morning coffee on the back porch, I was shocked to find that all the freshly sprouted greens and beans had been eaten down to the ground. The Rabbit had fired the shot heard around the yard. In response to this act of aggression, a fence was placed around both gardens. The hummingbirds calmed me down as they spent the morning chasing each other off the feeders. So far the fence has kept the rabbit out.
Oh man, this reminds me of our situation. Our first garden ate down to the nub by deer, our second garden had a 9 ft fence around it. My dog chased one out the other night. I had wrongly assumed 9 ft was tall enough! :/
ReplyDeleteIm not sure how that little rabbit could fit through the hole after having eaten so much.
DeleteAs I recall, rabbit stew is very tasty.
ReplyDeleteTater agrees. He almost caught that rabbit the other day.
