Dead rabbit found today

I made a flying visit to allotment this afternoon, thought the scarecrows were great, slightly earie as they look real out of the corner of your eye. I hope the birds are being put off. Anyway while I was there with the children they spotted a dead rabbit on the corner of Nick's plot near the bottom hedge,we didn't investigate how it died and we didn't bury it as we were short of time and the children were squirmish at the thought of moving it. Hopefully this doesn't signify the start a problem. I haven't noticed any problems that aren't likely to be due to birds and my very casual look around didn't identify any burrows. Just thought i'd mention it as it may explain nibbles. Jo

  1. I only seem to be able to reply to stuff, I can't find another way of writing anything. I found my first two snails today, is it possible the scarecrow (aka Kevin) has frightened the birds off or have the snails only just found the allotment?

  2. We have more than two, my compost bin has a bit of a colony going but nowhere near as many as home! I think they have been slow to discover us as i didn't find many last year at all.
