an invisible predator


Something is eating my arugula seedlings.  Here they are, magnified - that is, here they look almost edible already, whereas in reality they're about the size of a rolled oat.  And this happened overnight.  As if it wasn't hard enough for them battling 95 degree heat, and a drying wind, there's some minute bug that's chewing miniature holes in them.  Given that today's rise in Covid-cases in Santa Fe makes me super-interested in growing our own food, I'm hoping that they will make it to adulthood.
