It started with my raspberries… While picking, if I happened to drop one precious berry, zoom came Bailey to gobble it up. It was only a matter of time until she put two and two together and realized that she could nibble off the red, juicy, dangling berries with ease. Now when ever I’m weeding, and hear a rustle rustle coming from my berry bushes, I know her face will pops out with a red raspberry grin. Stinker!
Unfortunately… that same two and two became apparent in my pea patch as well. She watched me pulling and picking plump pods and began helping herself. She pulls pods right off the vine, yes she does…crunch, crunch, crunch.
I wonder how long it will be until I find her digging up carrots, snacking on a radish, or enjoying my salad greens.
Needless to say I no longer wonder where Miss Bailey has gone when she disappears from view. I know she is where I wish I could always be, dodging honey bees among-st the tasty things that are growing in my garden. And to think I have been worried about the deer…
