My public apologies to Chuck

For three years now, I have blamed our resident groundhog, Chuck, for our "all the tomatoes are half missing" problem. I simply could not imagine wat else what doing it! (Though the fact that it happened inside the fence had me wondering...)

Chuck is completely innocent. (Of the tomato crimes, anyway. Of violets we will speak another day.)

This is the culprit.

An 8-inch long problem called a hormed tobacco worm. And his 29 (so far) buddies.

RIP
