Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So, how’s it going?
Yep. We struggled for a year or two trying to keep them of gardens. Just use netting now, and don’t have problems. Occasionally “catch” a cheeky sparrow that finds a gap somewhere, but they don’t do any harm. When plants are big enough we take off the netting so the birds can have at the bugs. Mostly works for us.
Now I do remember once I had netted my black berries and a blackbird got itself all tangled and ended up strangling itself. Took ages to get it out. I’ve kind of just given up on stopping them from getting the berries. Just aim to grow enough for both them and us.
