Yesterday, as I took my dogs down to the rabbit pens to protect them from whatever attacked and killed 4 of the bunnies, the next door neighbor's dog went ballistic - turned out to be a full grown bobcat! Heading straight for the rabbits, until Snoop treed one (the neighbor thinks he also saw a kitten that got away). This was in daylight (dusk) about an hour before dark...bobcats are usually much shyer, and no one hereabouts remembers seeing one come in this close to the houses in at least 20 years! The neighbor took the shotgun to it = rabbits are safe, I think, for now. Depends on if the kitten comes back (if there even was one). It's raining hard tonight - of course; I just completed assembling my irrigation system I designed over the winter! LOL! But that means I'm giving the dogs the night off from sentry duty - no need to get wet, especially since I'm unsure if there's a small bobcat lurking in the area.
Other news: my sugar-snap peas are starting to sprout! As are the rainbow radishes! I'll get around to posting a list of what all I have planted so far, tomorrow - after I move the goats in the rain!
Blessed be.
