No bunnies. We have skunks, raccoons, mice, rats, and possum. I don't see any digging or foot prints.

But what happened last night, I was having a midnight snack of a
Bowl of Cheerios when a package fell out. It was a seed packet of Cosmos!! They are promoting caring for and helping bees. And then this morning I find the missing sunflowers and there were two little patches with really nothing in them. So I threw the Cosmos in the middle where the bare patches were and got some soil and threw it over the cosmos. So you win some and you lose some. That was a nice treat and such a happy coincidence!! How strange is that?? It's almost like it wasn't a coincidence. Like it was supposed to be that way. So we'll see if my haphazard handywork ends up in sprouts or not!

Just wanted the sunflowers for the kids. They would have loved those and so would the birds and animals, and us!!

Next year I will have to figure something else out. Hmmm.

Maybe you didn't talk to them enough? Meanwhile, try reading this thread (be sure to start at page one at the top--not sure if this link will get you there or to the end):
