    Default take a good look now because...

    every animal in Michigan will be eating these next week. lol

    This is part of one of my cherry trees. We've never netted them, so have never been able to pick any cherries before all the animals get them.

    I guess the good news since we don't get any cherries is that we do get a huge variety of birds and bunnies. lol

    too cool! I have never had a fruit tree. My raspberry bushes are doing well though.

    I know all the wildlife will love you. I would love to have a couple of miniature cherry trees just for the birds.

    Oh, I would have to net some of those. Couldn't let the birds get them all.

    As a matter of fact, I am trying to figure out how to keep the birds from getting all my mulberries- and cherries are MUCH nicer!

    The problem with netting is that birds get caught in them or I would have done it already. Plus squirrels will always find a way. lol

    Same thing happens with my raspberries.
