Rabbit and Squirrel

My backyard is over run with squirrels and at least one rabbit. Between the squirrels digging in the yard and the rabbit eating my flowers, I've just about had it.

Then today I discovered my rabbit, which I've always suspected was a female, has indeed had a baby bunny. While cleaning up "the back 40" I almost stepped on a tiny tiny bunny. It hopped away all back feet and legs. It was the same color as the dirt and I couldn't find it again.

No getting rid of the rabbit now. I sprayed my new aster plant with a concoction of hot sauce, red pepper powder and dishwashing liquid. Let's see if that keeps her away from that plant at least. Why doesn't she eat weeds!?
