I don’t know if I can bring myself to post pictures. I have no squash. I have a couple stubs of used-to-be squash.

When I first planted things, something (ground squirrels?) ate most of the greens, a good deal of the eggplant leaves, and some squash leaves. Then, things were left alone for the next month or so. But between Sunday and now (Tuesday afternoon), something has really done a number on my squash. Lots of leaves missing from the smaller ones and spaghetti squash. I didn’t have it in me to do a full inventory, but there’s a lot missing.

I thought I had gotten past some hump of them not bothering things, but I guess they just realized that they should wait for the good stuff.

I guess I make some chicken wire/hardware cloth enclosures for things. Ick.

ETA:
Not great pictures, but…
