beautiful thief
My husband and I were out in the backyard the other day drooling over the nectarines growing on a small tree we have growing amongst other fruit trees growing on our property. Three days later the tree was stripped bare. I believe today I identified our thief!!

I think you caught him red handed. I see that leaf! Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWow--it would be hard to get angry at something so beautiful for robbing your fruit trees. You are blessed to be growing your own fruit and veggies, and to be able to see wildlife right in your own yard.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy.....I will be green with envy when you start harvesting.
Take care
We love our trees Kathleen, nectarine, apple, pear and peach. We frequently pull the excess fruit off and throw it down on the ground for the wildlife to munch on.
DeleteThe peach trees are quite immature so they are inside the fence so that beautiful little fella can't get to them. I'd planning to do a peach and vidalia onion relish this year if I get enough peach's.
Hi Jen, I thought at first your beautiful thief may have been a bird. What a pleasant surprise, he is indeed a beauty! I just love your photographic evidence. This truly made me smile big today. Love and care, Kerrie
ReplyDeleteHe is a dear! :) LOL
ReplyDeleteAw! Jen this is sweet! And you are so kind.
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous you have nectarines in YOUR YARD!! But I am happy for you! lol
You are so nice. That animal is a beauty, but I would still be disappointed!!!!
ReplyDeleteThey must be so sweet!!!!!
As long as he stays out of my fence and leaves my peaches alone I'm fine!
DeleteMy neighbors would be thinking I'm nuts for shooting him with a camera and not a gun!
Oh my gosh! How wonderful to have such a beautiful animal so close! He is clearly caught red-handed!! A mixed blessing, I guess...losing all the fruit. We lost all our produce to pickle worms...I would have preferred a deer. :-)
ReplyDeleteAww...sweet post!
ReplyDeleteThanks Holly...
DeleteSo beautiful...however very destructive in this neck of the woods...they eat anything and everything...our property is surrounded with fence and trees and so far...great luck!
ReplyDeleteIt would have been nice to have the fruit but that's a mighty cute critter that absconded with it. Venison anyone?

Tossing It Out
Great photos, it would be hard to hold a grudge against him for eating the fruit!
ReplyDeleteyep! It is a like bitter sweet....my flowers too...but the animals are so pretty too... beautiful pictures.
ReplyDeleteOh my!!! Well at least it is pretty to look at :)
ReplyDeleteShe's lovely.It must be great to have friuit trees in your garden we don't have enough sun here to grow trees like that ,even my blossem tree that only flowers for one week a year didn't flower this year as the rain and wind a few weeks ago was too much for it.
ReplyDeleteIts amazing that you were able to get a photo. Yes we know what we can an cannot plant around here. They are beautiful though aren't they.
ReplyDeleteWhat great photos! It would be hard to get upset with such a pretty thief!
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty thief he is. I can imagine the fun you had taking this photo. Did you tell your husband you were going outside to shoot a deer? ;)
ReplyDeleteYeah, you'd need a much higher fence to keep that thief out!
