I went out yesterday afternoon to check the carrots, and there was a
large rabbit sitting about 15 feet away from me, eating dandelions. He was completely unconcerned with my presence, even when I took a few steps in his direction and said "Eat all the dandelions you want, but leave the garden alone." He just looked at me and went on chewing. I stood there for a few minutes more; then had to go in and start dinner. He kept eating dandelions.
I can see the garden from my kitchen window, but didn't see him again, and the spinach seemed to be all there this morning. I'd like to think we have an agreement, this rabbit and I.
All the same, the bits of unassembled fence scattered around the yard will have to take some shape soon. I hope that agreement holds until Saturday!
