Desperate birds

Yikes! It looks like the birds have gotten a head start on sampling the grapes. Weird, I thought they waited until JUST before they're ripe. In any case, we figured we better put out some of the nets; were hoping to do that later in the month but I'd rather get a few out now and not loose the entire crop. On a side note, we haven't been putting out the hummingbird feeders, which are supposed to help keep other birds out (to some extent). Note for next year = attract hummingbirds! Even if it doesn't really make a difference, it's just plain neat-o anyway.
