Trouble in Paradise?

Some folks think this is a gopher...
some speculate a rat. Why a rat?
Because the plants above are not damaged.

That, and the fact that we had a rat
invade our BBQ this winter. Eeeeewwww!

Under the cucumber plants is the mound
of dirt left by the invader.


Next to this activity is the bowl, holding
the remnants from the bird feeder. Hmmm.
Peanuts. Must get finch feed next time.

  1. Update: Definitely gopher, my beautiful cucumber plants are all wilted and the holes are multiplying! Red Alert!

  2. if you put a mole in there, you won't have a gopher problem anymore. ... there might be a smell for a while afterwards though...
