07-09-12 Bambi crashes the Garden of Eden or the clash of myths!

The clash between suburbia and wildlife is neither new nor easily solvable. In fact it is about as intractable as the Middle-East situation.

Not to seem too dramatic or anything but, while I respect wildlife, insects, birds and other critters, I expect them to constrain their eating to no more than 10% of my veggie production, a kind of natural tithe, and, last night, the 10% was consumed in one sitting, after crashing, effortlessly, my foot tall rabbit fence.

The bigger challenge is that Bambi has now located and penetrated the freshest local buffet and will be back for more, with or w/o a clean plate :)

On the other hand, I love this picture taken by a pro at the Eno River State park:
