Feathered Munchers :)

Came home from work tonight to find pheasants eating my semi ripe blackcurrants and I've noticed my blueberries have also been pinched

As my gooseberries have sawfly this year it doesn't look like I'm going to get much fruit and I was desperate to try out new recipe - blackcurrant and lemongrass cordial.

What is the best method of keeping birds off my fruit? My bushes are not all tight together so need a way that will be easy to erect as Im going to have to do it about 8 times.

Hi Lisa, you can just throw a net over a fruit bush to protect it or build a fruit cage which is going to be much more expensive.

Thanks Lesley. I will give the net option a go.

Fingers crossed I wil get my cordial. xxx
