Over the years, we have seen a number of critters start to congregate in our backyard. At first, it was just chipmunks and squirrels. Lately, we've seen more rabbits. They are often hopping around and happily munching on clover.
The last few years, our garden has been relatively quiet. Whether we decided not to plant due to travel or because of the old location shaded by trees, we just were not getting solid results. About five years ago, the rabbits first started to munch on our produce. I spent a lot of time and effort putting up fences, but it didn't seem to help. Last year, I even went and improved it with window screen and a removable gate.
As of this morning, this is the result:
I had taken the screen down to get a clearer picture. What had once been a healthy cauliflower plant is now just a nibbled nub.
I suppose I'll just have to plant things they don't like to eat.
