Here the pictures tell the story.  Look at the photo’s I posted last week, and compare them with these.  I don’t think we are going to get much fruit this year.  The fruit trees are only small. From the sharp edged marks in the top of the pears, I think the culprits were parrots.  I dearly love parrots except when they ruin our fruit!

Richard is in the process of putting up some bird netting, but it is a bit late for this year.  I’m scared to write that the plums are still untouched.
