Bean seedling; onions under attack

Broad bean seedling, 14 days after planting
The largest of the eight broad bean seedlings.
Today I found that one of the onion sets had been dug up, by a person or persons unknown. Possibly a squirrel, possibly a bird. It was lying a few inches from the hole it came from, undamaged as far as I could see. There were numerous small roots which had developed since it was planted, and I tried not to damage these when I replaced it in the hole and firmed up the earth around it.
