The little critter saw its shadow today, which means it will retreat back to its hole for another six weeks of winter.

There's still hope for some snow storms this winter.

I'm not sure whether you don't like winter or those furry rodents.  Those things just dont stand a chance.

They're pretty tough on our garden(s).  If a groundhog finds your garden, it's going to raid it until there's nothing left.

Between groundhogs rabbits and deer, it's a full time job defending anything you plant.   Deer are generally more of a problem because people can easily dispatch a groundhog or rabbit.  Not so easy for a deer.  Thankfully, the wolves are back and beginning to bring the deer numbers down.

Maybe, but deer make better eating than groundhogs!

Wolves seem to like them. 

Personally, I'll pass.  The diet that our deer eat (when not raiding our gardens) makes them pretty gamey.  Not nearly as tasty as your grain fed Saskatchewan grade "A" white tails.  

Groundhog would likely taste better than our deer, if you can get one that the ticks haven't ravaged. 

On the other hand, hard to beat a nice coney.  But I havent seen one round here for years.  Lotsa coyotes tho - I guess thats why.

What's a coney?
