Maybe I need a rest

Ever since moving to Brunswick County, I've been fighting rabbits in order to obtain dominion over my own yard. Especially during the spring and summer, when I'm trying to grow flowers and vegetables, the furry thieves drive me crazy, chewing up my plants and leaving piles of rabbit poop all over the place. In fact, I think they may have finally pushed me over the edge, because...well, I saw something terrible recently...

  3. As if transhumanism isn't enough to deal with. Now we have transrabbitism too.

  4. Paco, at least they don't take without giving. It's the circle: you provide beauty and nourishment, and they provide gratitude and fertilizer. Have you tried raised planters?

    Seeing rabbits in trees may be the start of a syndrome. If it doesn't have a name, you might get it named after you.

    It might be rabbititus.

  7. Come now, Mr. Paco sir, rabbits make very tasty soups and stews. I'm sure you could find a solution if you thought about it.

  9. And be careful of running over baby bunnies when you cut the grass. Those brown patches of grass in the lawn may be a nest. American rabbits don't make deep nests like their European cousins. If a nest is discovered but no momma is around, leave it alone because she only tends them once or twice a day. They will grow and then move away.
