No further cat invasions of the veggie garden as far as I can tell. My sweetie bought some rabbit fencing, taller than the current bits, which we'll try putting up this weekend; I still want to get some netting for future use in keeping birds out. I want to help neighborhood birds all I can, but not at the expense of my seeds. They show no sign yet of discovering that my white plastic row markers mean "SEEDS BURIED HERE!" and I intend for them not to learn. I'll put up bird feeders instead, somewhere that would be reasonably safe from cat ambush if possible.

The weed grass seeds are beginning to sprout in force. Broccoli due to show itself by the end of the weekend or so.
