For the past several years my parents have had their heart set on quince fruit from the trees they planted on my property. Unfortunately the deer were nipping off the buds at night so, so far no fruit. Looks like that will change this year as my dad took some fish cages I wasn't using (I made them much too large at first) and put them around the trees so the deer couldn't reach them. (They are open on top except for the top edges).

They aren't the most attractive thing in the world but they do the job.



Here are this year's blossoms that are just coming out.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
