This morning I found a couple of blackbirds helping themselves to the grapes. This is obviously another sign that they are nearly ready!
I managed to find enough netting in the garden shed to cover both rows of remaining grapes. Hopefully this should keep the hungry birds away.
I had a guided tour of the vines yesterday, from the young master. He pointed out what I should be taking note of, adding “oooooh” where appropriate. Lx
Nice to hear that the young apprentice is taking pride in his role.
