UNfortunately, he was there when we moved in (late Feb).
I think he's just a permanent resident, and might have
been "trapped" INside the yard when the chicken-wire went
up. I did a perimeter crawl - can't walk it due to all
the artfully placed bushes and shrubs, and didn't see
any obvious entry point. I've never seen more than one,
so it's possible he's just been there all year and had
no reason to leave. In neighboring yards, I've seen twosies
and threesies, but only ever one in mine. So far.
Does being in a constant banquet override even the mating instinct?
I'll try the carrots again - as well as broccoli that
somebody suggested - and place the trap where I've seen
him (her?) retire when I attempted herding. But I think
this might be the wrong time of year - all those young
plants are just so tender and yummy - no contrast.
It'd be like "treating" your horse to an apple... in
the middle of an orchard.
The instructions with the trap were not very helpful.
