Ugh! The Birds!!!

They are eating my seeds!!! The Basil and Cilantro I think have been completely scavenged but some beautiful birds! Several holes in the dirt this morning with the innocent looking birds pecking away all around :( So sad...

I guess I'll try again, I might put chicken wire over for a while until they grow.

New seedlings being started today in the egg carton, red-leaf lettuce, chives and then outside sage and mint. And I'm going to transplant all the squash, tomatoes and microgreens outside.

  1. I think my sunflower fort's a bust, too. And possibly some of my herbs. You'd think the feral cats running around the yard all the time would help with the bird problem.... Of course, I could use a dog around to keep the cats from using the gardens as kitty litter. Ugh! Anyway, I hear your pain, Dori. I've got the chicken wire thing going on in some other areas. Seems to be working. Good luck!
