One had died and 3 others were stuck in the netting. Not sure who put on the web material on some of the trees but was not only was it ineffective it was deadly. This guys head was stuck in the webbing he let me gently push his head back through and all 3 flew away once i removed the netting, needles to say no peach is worth a bird dying for....or being trapped. Will have to talk to the board this fall and get "proper netting" for next season. Just glad i decided to walk over and check out the trees. Finally melons..yeah! Though with all the replanting due to birds taking the seeds i have absolutely no idea which kind this one is but it is in the cantaloupe/honeydew section. We will know once we slice it open :)
Ok, sun is up and it's getting hot time to call it quits and head home!
