Default Garden, Bed & Breakfast

Noticed something was eating my bean leaves, so yesterday I zip-tied all the gaps in the garden fence. It appears I locked the unwanted guest in rather than out.

Today I went into the garden & found a medium sized ground hog. I tried to shoo it, hoping to find whatever hole or gap it escaped into so I could seal it off. It didn't have an exit strategy. I guess I did a great job of sealing all the holes.

Had to leave the gate open and walk away to get it out. I guess I'd better do a better job of weeding so I can see things like ground hogs lurking in my garden...

Glad it was just a ground hog and not something that could have hurt you.

Yes! I was worried enough about the ground hog. Garden is only 11' x 40' and I had it cornered.

But while we have coyotes in Pittsburgh, we don't have any in my neighborhood.
