I have had a cute little bunny hopping around my garden all year. I made some halfhearted attempts to chase it away at first, but it is faster and cleverer than me—for example, running me in circles around the greenhouse. I never even managed to chase it out of the yard.
Eventually I decided that a bunny calmly nibbling at this and that wasn’t going to hurt anything, and eventually we got to a point of mutual understanding. Meaning that it was always hanging around and not even slightly afraid of me.
But yesterday I looked out the window and there were TWO bunnies. Right away I’m thinking potential garden disaster if they start breeding, but they were actually battling for dominance! They look similar so I couldn’t immediately tell who was who, but one was chasing the other all over the place and eventually Scared Bunny performed an acrobatic leap over Mean Bunny and left the yard. I got a better look at Victorious Bunny, and it was NOT Regular Bunny.
(M.H. asked, “How can you possibly tell?” I said, “My bunny is cuter.”)
Looked out the window today, and there is Evil Bunny again. I can tell for sure because it’s super twitchy and on high alert—patrolling its new turf rather than merrily nibbling in the style of an animated movie critter.

Am I comfortable with this new bunny? No I am not.
