Bird

Rabbits. Rabbits would chew clear thru my cucumber plants, right at the ground, just when full of cukes about an inch long. We got the sort of dog who’d theoretically could clear the yard of rabbits. A second rabbit family moved in. Someone told me they prefer yards with dogs because the dog keeps the fox away. I know the dog keeps the neighbor’s cats from using my garden as a litter box. So that’s a bonus. And while my Frenchie can be mighty fast when she gets the zoomies, she’s just no match for the rabbits. Alas, I must go to the farmers’ market. A self-sufficient homestead will not be mine here in the burbs where small game hunting would be frowned upon. Next year I’ll try cukes in containers on the deck. Not sure the rabbits are coming up that high.

Strands today. Nice feature. IYKYK
