The birds help greatly with some insects. Thanks for posting this and
reminding us.

Last summer we watched a cardinal workin' like crazy in the cherry
tomatoes. He spent aver an hour frantically fighting with something
all over the vines. After he was done, we found that he was attacking
some small hornworms that I hadn't noticed. He must have eaten some,
but others he just smooshed. I didn't know anything would eat them.

Needless to say I finished his job, lazy bugger.

Cardinal to the Mrs. when he got home
Do you know that lazy bugger guy has worms all over his tomatoes and he
didn't even come out and help me fight them off???
