The neighbors are pretty good to keep their cows in.
The lion got the deer.
The cat harasses the rodents.
I share with the birds and bugs.
Skunks have been my biggest problem. Traps.

There seem to be quite a few cougars on my boat dock. They don't bother me because of my advanced state of geezerfication. I also have my wife to protect me. She's pretty territorial.

Jal-Ut, it looks like you must weed 24 hours a day. We get good yields but in addition to sharing with bees and birds, we share with the weeds. By mid July, I just give up on weeding. I can't do it in the 100 degree heat.

Beautiful garden my friend.

You had be going as well with the lion......but then I though about it and figured it was just regional slang for a mountain lion.....then you posted and it turns out I was right.

You said you have skunks....what crops do they bother? Corn?
