The cherries are starting to ripen and once again we are in competition for our food with the birds. This year we were ready and covered the big tree before they were ripe with four nets to keep birds from reaching the cherries. Our method for covering it is a little unorthodox, but it was a little easier this second time around after we were a little more practiced. We stretched the long nets between two tall bamboo poles and lifted them up and over the tree, making sure each section was covered. Then Vince had to go in from underneath and arrange the nets around the limbs with the bamboo pole. Now bring on the cherries! We're ready.
