Strewth, ours are only just flowering.

Birds and wind have also collectively completely stripped our apple tree.

And that annoying mud lark is still flying into the window....

Put a mirror up on an angle next to the window. See if you can trigger a melee.

Nearly finished putting a mesh cover over my daughter’s veggie garden which consists of 19 raised beds, 5 in ground beds a hot house & shade house
Plan is to keep the birds out of the veggie's
The frame is made out of 11/4” gal pipe @ is 50 metres by 30 metres and is fox & cat proof so she can have Guinea pigs roaming around to keep the grass down

My kids would drop me down a mineshaft!!!

We'll sell them. I'm trying to get the kids to understand that side of life. Not easy tho. We've got a block in a town about the size of your garden. It would be quicker to mow the lawn than to regularly move their pen frankly. We have some unusual ones, with long hair and rosettes so I'll get the kids into breeding them for those traits, they're worth more too. They might even get into showing them.
