| Looks like it would have been good. |
Hmmm... something got in & CARRIED a 5 oz big tomato to our pool, & ate HALF of it. OK guys if this is a bird - I'm never going outside again! I know the mockingbird was picking on the cherry tomatoes in Kate - I saw him & I know from the past that they will peck at the larger ones, but NOPE they just don't carry them 10 feet away.
So it's most like a raccoon that's getting in there & that is a whole different problem! Darn!
So went out & put more rocks on the netting & sewed up the back - no more wooden sticks.
Next day - well I'd show you the almost red tomato he got - but... can't find it! Gone from Amy completely!
I'm now thinking DEF-CON 4 (electrical fencing with razor wire)! DH (thinking that HE is going to have to be the one to actually DO the work) is thinking there might be another thing or two that we can do before that.

| This is our bait - not red enough to pick YET |
So we made some more wire stakes from clothes hangers, put a lot of those to hold down the netting. Today there is another almost red tomato (see the pic above) .... no, I'm not gonna stay up tonight with a flash light & a ...a... a.. "stick" to see if he shows up. Let's just see how this goes.
