Papaya

 The Papaya is getting ready. That means the birds are sitting on the roof planning their attacks.  >.<

 So I was thinking how to put up a bird net. At 1st I was thinking wire - like a coat hanger. But but that would rust/corrode. 

 Then it hit me. The piping from our drip system. it's small and it curls nicely in a circle. So I cut a small piece, added a single stopper to attach the ends. But not before weaving the bird netting around it.


I'm not worried about the smaller green ones up top.


 the bottom part was open and long enough to catch children and small dogs. so I added some string and tied the bottom. 

 

 Now the bird netting is all black and kind of hard to see. Diane let me borrow some cloth and I tied streamers to the netting 


 Hopefully now we will see it and not get snagged up in it as we walk around the garden.  :)


and for my hard work this morning. Diane made some cinnamon bread!!
