Papaya & Birds

Do you ever wonder what happened to your beautiful ripening papaya? When you've been dreaming of it ripening on the tree and you come home to a big hole on it's side and everything has been cleaned out - seeds and all?  >.<





The papaya in the front yard are rather small, as they haven't been properly watered and have this white scale on the bark/fruit. So really - it's not that big of a deal - just hope these birds don't get any ideas on the monster papaya in the back yard.

So maybe adding a few lawn ornaments will keep them away? Recently I was pulling a hard drive apart, and while the daughter was playing with the magnets - I strung together the platters on fishing line. They are polished to a mirror like surface.  

Guess I'll string them up next to the fruit and see if anymore gets eaten. anything is worth a try .
