Whilst my Mom thought I was sleeping too much yesterday just because a rascally rabbit was in the garden eating things. She knows that when I am up I show no mercy for the rabbits, squirrels and cats.
Why look at me now. I just chased four squirrels and the neighbors cat out of the garden plus I have that pesky rabbit cornered in the stick pile. It won't be so la dee da about showing its face today.
Besides if you saw my Mom right now you would think she was the foolish one. She is outside while there is a dusting of snow on the ground looking for blooms for
Carols Garden Bloggers Bloom Day tomorrow. Even I know there won't be anything in this garden blooming despite what
Kylee posted on her blog. After all, a girl needs her beauty sleep.
Unfotunately for them, fortunate for us and our plants, I didn't find any evidence of nibbling. I could track the rabbit all around the garden though. It is intersting that it stayed on the regular paths for the most part. I could see where it would go into its favorite bushes where it likes to hide from us when we come outside.
I could also see where it cut through one flower bed right over the top of the big rock where the lizard usually sits. The lizard must have gotten cold and moved to a warmer place. Here you can also see that Luna was tracking the rabbit. Her footprint goes right over the rabbit print on the rock.
You can see right where this rabbit departed from the garden. In one side out the other.
The cats have been checking out the bird feeder right out my window too. They have been quite active in the garden. I wish they would go eslewhere to hunt. It doesn't seem fair to feed the birds just to have the neighborhood cats take them.
