To a handful of cherries
Attachment 428312
Just planted our first cherry tree this year. Our apple trees we planted two years ago are loaded this year! YAY
This tree has a good crop this year. The strawberries have been doing well also
We have a pecan tree that is just starting to have pecans. The squirrels, for the last 2 years, have cleaned the trees early in a morning. We have been fortunate to get one peacan each year. Hope this year is different. We might get 2 pecans.
Growing up Dad had pecan trees. After I graduated I moved next door. A squirrel came hopping across the field heading for the pecan tree. Dad told me to take care of the squirrel. I dispatched said critter with a well placed blast of a 12 gauge. The old man wasn't exactly fond of my choice of artillery in said matter as a stood there holding a very dead squirrel by the tail. :Rofl
I have thought of that but it is illegal to shoot a gun in our neighborhood.
Air rifle technology has come a long way.
Just was watching a YouTube video on a guy shooting pest with air rifle. Had the pellets painted as tracers and slow motion video camera. Was very precision and accurate shooting. The air rifle I have has a built in silencer and is pretty quite and I shoot in my neighborhood when needed. Never had a single complaint.
They have a few channels on YouTube that shoot invasive iguanas down in Florida. They have some nice precharged air rifles
Trying to keep them out of a fig tree is a challenge even when properly armed. I hated leaving for work knowing they were just waiting for me to leave. Come home and a bite out of each one.
They will flat wear a fig tree out
My mom always got the aftermath of the birds “bombing” her nice white sheets - she didn’t mind a firm action being taken to discourage it.:Rofl

Nothing worse than bird dropped blackberries on freshly washed white sheets
I like to watch a guy on YouTube that goes by simon66 I believe. I think he's in Scotland. He takes out crows and magpies that kill the lambs. He also goes after rats. Very impressive shooter.
I believe I have watched him also
