Nice Try

Several year ago I gathered some persimmons, put them through a dormancy period in our refrigerator over the winter to prep the seeds that they contained for sprouting in the spring and then Andrew planted and finessed them along for a couple years until they finally became viable trees. At some time during that period a critter nipped one of them off so he built wire enclosures to protect the saplings from being nibbled again. Eventually the nipped one recovered.  I went outside the other day and Pip was INSIDE one of the enclosures digging a nest.  She's been rather industriously working on it for about a week; coming and going with ease as she gathers grass to line the cavity which is so deep you can only see her butt in the air when she is inside it.  She acts like it's her personal compound to the extent that Daisy was nose to nose with her this morning. Here's a couple pics. So far she hasn't exhibited any interest in the persimmon. LOL Crazy rabbit.
