We have an amazing cherry tree in our back yard and every year about this time we have to gear ourselves for battle. Just as the cherries begin to ripen, hundreds of birds start hanging out in our yard. On the very day when they are finally all perfectly ripe...the birds attack and within a few hours ALL (and I mean ALL) the cherries are gone. We are trying to figure out a good way to fight this, but so far, we have mostly failed. I guess we will just enjoy how pretty they look and pick enough when they come on to enjoy a few days of fresh cherries.
