Rabbits!
There is a colony of them living, I'm pretty sure, under the front porch of the house next door. In the winter there was little evidence of them except for their slots in the snow, but now they're back big time. They've eaten the tulips down to the ground. They've even eaten the apple tree. The phrase "shy as a rabbit" doesn't apply here; these guys are brash and bold. There's one blond rabbit of preternatural size that's actually quite striking-looking, and it's produced at least one blond offspring. (I mentioned this to a friend who was over the other day, and who spotted a blond rabbit in the back yard. She: "Wow, that really is a big rabbit!" Me: "Um, that's the offspring.")
Hard-won knowledge to those likewise plagued with bunnies: they don't like to eat either daffodils or tomatoes, those are safe to grow.
