Save the Peaches
Warrior for the Cause
Last year was our first spring in this home. Â Eliya would sample the peaches everyday and they were always a little too raw. Â The day they ripened the birds literally stripped the tree and ate all the fruit!! Â I didn't get a single ripened peach last year! Â This year we are planning to protect the tree and throw a net over it to stop the birds.
Mathias, my early riser, manged to craft a bow and arrow out of duck tape and bamboo - all before breakfast!! Â He claims it's very accurate and proceeded to demonstrate (promptly losing his arrow in the bushes.) Â I don't know how much protection it will be against birds but I'm hoping for some ripe peaches this year!
