Rabbits footThis may have been better under a superstition heading, but am not sure.
Today in my garden I found a fresh rabbits foot, and a rabbits tail. They were together, in plain sight from one area of the garden that I use, on a railway sleeper. These have been cut, not savaged by an animal.
I have no idea how they got there, or who may have left them there.
Now I know a rabbits foot may be considered to be lucky, but why a tail?
Can there be any relevance to this?

Can someone have thrown them over your fence?

No. The area is like a little triangle, one side is a 10 foot hedge, another side has a big ceanothus bush, the railway sleeper is under this bush. The third side of the triangle has a platform raised 6 foot which we use as a seating area. Under the platform is room to park a low car. You can access this area either by walking under the platform, or by walking though the garden.
To get the foot and tail where it was, it would have had to be placed there.

Can you take a digital picci and put it on. We can take a psychic look. As far as I know there is no occult significance.

Will do tomorrow when there is some light. I have moved them, didn't want them there. Did not feel good.
Thanks though. Will stop bothering my head about it.

Will start bothering my head again!!!
10 sparrows? (for once I have nothing to say, picture me like a goldfish, head to one side, kinda puzzled)

I once had a shower of shooted seedlings fall on my shoulders for a full minute out of a clear blue sky and on a still summers day in the middle of Folkstone market. These things happen.

Have attached some photos of the garden
This is the corner of the garden concerned taken from above (out my window, to give an idea of how tucked away it is.
This is the view from the far corner of the platform, showing the leylandii on the left and the ceanothus ahead of you. Below the ceanothus there is a little tree of three silvery lanterns. The rabbits foot and tail were side by side to the left of the lanterns.
You could chuck them over the leylandii, but would be hard pushe to do that and get them under the ceanothus, and side by side.
And a close up
Whilst I less of a state than I was yesterday, if anything comes to mind looking at these, I would be grateful (apart from the hatchet job to the leylandii, which was unfortunately very necessary)

is it out of the question that an animal left it there.. perhaps a bird of prey was flying over and dropped it and it fell through the bushes landing in that unlikey position. A chance in a million perhaps but just as likely as any?

Its always possible. The thing is that the rabbits foot had been cleanly removed at the joint. There is no matting on the fur, nor is there any blood on either the tail or the foot.
These pieces have been clean cut, not ripped off a carcass.
I guess there will always be arguments against them being left by an animal or a bird, partly because I don't think they were, and so I will skew any reasoning against that unless there is strong enough reasoning.
Maybe time will tell. Maybe it was in fact a nice gesture by someone. Give me a lucky rabbits foot, and a fluffy bunny tail. Bunny tails have been used for years round here for manually pollinating fruit trees.
I am kind of finding a peace with this, whatever happenned, mostly because there does not seem to be a sinister explanation. It would just be good to know.

Was this situation ever resolved? Did anything ever come of it?

No, not really.
Put then in a bucket for safe keeping. Don't really know why. Can acroos them again at the weekend when I was going to use the bucket for something. Used something else instead.

Have you noticed anything unusual since finding them? A run of noticable good or bad luck perhaps?
|
meiah

No more than normal, perhaps.
A lot of things are breaking, but generally that is good as it makes me sort things out that I might let drift otherwise. Its all general wear and tear stuff....actually all leaky things...heating pipes, velux window, washing machine etc
On the plus side, work is still soaring, so cool and funky.

That's ok then. If you haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary then it's probably just one of those things as Mr. Hobbs says.
