Neighbours talking over the garden gate has long been a tradition. They share gardening tips, complain about the weather and pests yet are ever eager to discuss their gardens. That is what I had in mind when creating this blog. So stop by my garden gate to find out the latest happenings in my garden.

Happy Gardening!

Found in the Garden

Rabbit Bones
April 1, 2010

There are many visitors to my gardens but sometimes I only see the tell tale signs they were there not the animal or bird itself. We have a fair number of hawks as well as a couple of neighbourhood cats that are of course predators. Every once in awhile we find the carcass of a small animal or bird. This morning when I was out checking the garden I spotted the remains of a jack rabbit. We have a lot of them in the area so it is common to see several in any given day. This one did not make it through the winter.

Happy Gardening!
