Picky eaters
The furries are back in my garden, and boy, do they seem to be selective about their dinner. This year I planted out about 24 pepper plants in 4 varieties, King of the North, Buran, Ace, and Yankee Bell. I didn't group plants of the same variety together--they were all mixed up. Yet somehow, the furries were able to select out the Yankee Bell plants. They ate every one to the ground, while leaving all the other varieties pretty much untouched (a couple of leaves were chomped off two of the Buran plants, but that was it).
I wonder if I, too, would have found Yankee Bell particularly tasty.

Well, the pepper plants have got to be tastier than the peppers themselves, right? :)
(Finally, I get to leave a comment!)
