Finally weeding most of the wild geraniums out of our vegetable garden a few weeks ago, I discovered just how ineffective the rabbit fencing around the garden was.
There, right under one of the tomato plants was a rabbit nest, with a bunch of little bunnies squirming deeper in to get out of sight. Even without the weeds to give them cover, that fencing was doing a fine job keeping raccoons and feral cats away from the nest.
We managed to nab two bunnies, which we hauled out to some of the undeveloped FoxConn property, a spot about a mile or two away from our house. They were just about big enough that they might have a chance to make it on their own. Maybe.
When I mowed the lawn a few days later, two more little bunnies began running around inside the garden in a panic, trying to jump out as I mowed around outside it. They had to be two different bunnies from the litter.
Unless this were a Bugs Bunny cartoon, in which case they'd be the same two.
