Cherries 16 Birds 0 - Net wins the day.

Just in this picture we have 16 cherries but the whole tree is covered in fruit ripening ready to pick. My Brother-in-Law has fought for years to keep the birds, Squirrels and other creatures off the berries but this year the netting has done the trick.

Looking forward to some nice cherry pies.

Lovely close up and colours, like cherries so next time at Tesco bet yours will be better

@philcameron59 Thanks Phil, I asked for a cherry-picker to come round and they sent me a hydraulic hoist.

@congaree Thanks for the comment John - YOUR NOT HAVING ANY OF OUR PIE ;-))

I am afraid the birds and squirrels have had most of ours

@snowy Take a tip from Wimbledon - Use a net Diana.
