Default Missing gooseberries

"David Hill" wrote

I had a really good crop of Gooseberries last week, but in a matter of 5
days all the fruit has gone from 24 bushes.
Any ideas?
No footprint of any sort in the soil


Ours are getting eaten too, looks like either a thrush, although he seems to
prefer our cherries and gets in and out our fruits cage somehow, or a
blackbird. Have found obvious bird damaged half eaten berries on other
parts of the allotment.
