You! Show me your paws!

And you . . . is that tomato juice on your nose?

In order to catch our little animal friends destroying the tomatoes it would be necessary to monitor the garden 24/7.  Aren’t there spy agencies doing that sort of thing already?  Maybe we could hire them to spy on our raccoons, possums, squirrels, etc. instead of on us.  Imagine, spending our tax dollars on something beneficial!


Anyway they got my first three tomatoes of the season, but I rescued two others.  One was still mostly green but undamaged.  The other had a small chunk taken out of it.  I washed it, trimmed out the bad place, sliced it, and ate it with breakfast.   So far, nobody is bothering the cherry tomatoes on the tall plants, only the big juicy ones on the short plants.
