Big fat rabbit ate our beet tops

I went out to the garden this morning with my cup of coffee to do my morning walk through and found that what is certainly by now a big fat rabbit had eaten all of the beet tops right to the ground. Rather a depressing way to start the day for sure.

I knew we had some rabbits in the area but they always stayed away from the house which is where the beets are (were) growing. I guess the temptation was just too much.

A barrier will be going up today which will protect what is left including rows of carrots and spinach. With any luck the beets will regrow their tops and all will be ok.

I am pretty sure this is the offending rabbit?
