Blackbird
Well, a blackbird pinched a wierd looking ripe strawberry off the plants in
my planter - it looked like a cow's udder!! But my wife and I had a couple off the raised bed over which I have put netting to stop any more thefts! There's a lot of strawberries almost ready for picking - looks like it's going to be a good year. The runner beans - growing through large holes cut in the bases of large inverted plastic flower pots are nearly sky high and the flowers are showing. When the flowers are out I'll do another trick I was told about many years ago by an old Cornishman to whom I made a promise never to tell anybody and I can keep a promise. Geoff |

That sounds more like tits than a blackbird. Blackbirds and thrushes pinch strawberries off the plants in the greenhouses here. And chunks out of the tomatoes! -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk (remove weeds from address) |
