Not sure if it was aesthetics that steered me away, or learning that the fence needs to be buried at least 6" under the soil to be effective. (I don't mind working, but there are times when I am lazy. No, that's not a contradiction. ;) )<br /><br />Wait, 4'? Do you grow tomatoes? You must let them ramble, and not grow them upward? (Mine get taller than stoop height.) <br /><br />I should be grateful we don't have a deer problem. Though there was one outside my window in the front yard the other day. Probably late for its train.ScentScelfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12264276265890227820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-82847041806026347.post-8163991178182364322011-05-27T10:34:10.851-05:002011-05-27T10:34:10.851-05:00Olfacta,

I had not considered heron in that light before, but now that I have...<br /><br />...and now that I have, I shall direct my attention back to the rabbits. Wishing you the best with your nets and such.<br /><br />Hey, you don't suppose we could train any herons to redirect their attention to furry hopping things, rather than scaly flopping things?ScentScelfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12264276265890227820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-82847041806026347.post-14155622517722543542011-05-26T15:13:05.573-05:002011-05-26T15:13:05.573-05:00Unlike you (I think - forgive me if I read this wr...Unlike you (I think - forgive me if I read this wrong). I treat my vegetable garden as a completely separate entity. It ends up looking like Alcatraz, with a 4'picket fence (it's cute) and wire mesh stapled at 3' height and bradded into the ground - then....then....I have a wire mesh 'roof' that sits atop the pickets - I just lift it off when I want to go into the space. If you are a bunny and can get through all that, then I have a Rottweiler with your name on him.<br /><br />xo AMusettehttp://www.bearboring.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-82847041806026347.post-43041996051868689742011-05-24T19:50:19.980-05:002011-05-24T19:50:19.980-05:00Everyone loves Great Blue Herons, don't they? ...Everyone loves Great Blue Herons, don't they? Except people, like us, who have fish ponds. A heron visit is total carnage. Pieces of fish floating in the water; once, I found my favorite fish, a hole through his body, gasping his last on the lawn -- evidently something had scared the heron away. They spear them, toss them into the air and swallow them alive. We use all the methods to discourage them -- net, plants, you name it, but we've lost many fish to them. I'd like to shoot the damned things but they're protected. Good luck with the bunny wabbits.Olfactanoreply@blogger.com
