Meet Alfritz. He is a mighty guardian of tiny stature. He has been standing watch over our strawberries for a year. Last year did not go so well for Alfritz. He was not intimidating enough to ward off the birds that dismembered the few strawberries we had. We imprisoned him in bird netting in an attempt to save what we could. The berries we picked were tasty. This year is bringing Alfritz a taste of freedom. He is getting a second chance to prove his worth. We will watch you, Alfritz. We will watch... and pray.

If he doesn't protect the strawberries, exile him to the bean vines
ReplyDeleteHmm, he does have a rake in hand. I wonder if he would actually DO anything in the beans? He smiles in the strawberries, though. I'd hate to break his spirit.
