It's getting warmer and the grass is getting greener, so of course the yummy grass has got to be a nice food source for the taking :bandit:

Seeing random grass clumps where the blades are mostly gone


Found this hole on side of yard near a wooded area, must be field mice.


Noticed this insect in the picture. I wonder how many of these are coming out to feast.

Whatever is eating the grass blades seems to prefer the light colored hybrid bluegrass, but not darker fescue or ryegrass. The second picture is a group clump of all three grasses and the hybrid bluegrass is the only one with blades eaten. Interesting :dunno:

Edit: I wonder if endophytes is the consumption differentiator. Fescue and ryegrass have it, but not bluegrass, as I understand it.
