A Rabbit Hole

An actual rabbit hole and not just the usual ones I find myself falling into...


So I mentioned Pinot's underground tunnel a few weeks ago.  He worked Very Hard on that project and ended up tunnelling 30" under that big rock.

And then one evening he filled it all back in.

Digging and filling are fairly similar processes.  Use the front feet to scrape it under your belly and then use your back feet to kick it out behind you.  When the pile gets too big, you turn around and start pushing it in front of you with your front feet like a bulldozer.  

Rabbits can move a lot of dirt.  


The other day...he dug it all (or most of it) back out.


"I can change my mind."


And now today he's filling it back in.

My dilemma...  

I usually plant zinnias in that area.  

It is my patio.  

Who am I fooling.

But I really like my zinnias.  

Sigh...

Put the Zinnias someplace else...or in a huge pot! Pinot has a job!

Yep. Put the zinnias in a big pot!

I just read "Raising Hare" by Chloe Dalton, a memoir about an English hare at her country house during Covid. I see Pinot is a rabbit but you might enjoy the details of the hare's behavior she writes about and the lengths she took to change her own routines in favor of the hare. I vote for the zinnias in a big pot.

Too late now Sara. Big Pot.

Potted zinnias get my vote too! Must have zinnias.

Maybe on the outside of the fence?
