I really enjoy the lilacs. It is lovely and green in spring.
But, here is the tail. Fred dug a burrow in the garden. You can see where it is at #5, under the rhododendron.
Cinnamon inspected Fred's hole at one point!
Here is Fred in her burrow #5. We had a good relationship. She is sleeping and won't emerge until March or so.

You can see some rabbit droppings!
These are Labbit's tracks. She's moved from burrow #4 to #5. It's tough leaping through the snow!
In the past, she's been eating the tender new shoots of the lilac tree. Fertilizing as she went. It's been quite a winter. I do enjoy seeing tracks in the snow. This wee furry critter is managing to get through the storms. It's something we all have to try to do. As best we can.
"We are in an era when the strong do what they will, the weak suffer what they must."
– Greek historian Thucydides, as quoted by PM Carney
