Nutmeg and Cocoa spend hours a day on the trail of rabbits. Usually, we see a rabbit run by along the edge of the woods, followed a few minutes later by the dogs hot on its trail, and a few minutes after that, the saucy rabbit has circled back, successfully eluding them.
Yesterday, one of the dogs had a rare hunting success and killed a young rabbit. I hate that, but I admit that the garden will fare better with some rabbit population control.
This morning a bunch of crows were in the yard, feasting on the frozen rabbit remains. A group of crows is called a "murder of crows."
