Wildlife Gardening: My subjects were sleeping, 1 by Equilibrium

When I got home, I found that the entire area around my one pond was destroyed. I guess the raccoons were opportunistic. I took the wire from that area to put around the base of the plum tree where the Robin had her nest with 4 eggs to keep the coyotes and cats away. Overall, I'm pretty happy. The other two babies were in a nearby tree and the window well baby and the baby that dropped down in the protected zone were not used as appetizers so I'll move that wire back to the little pond.

While we were up visiting family and friends over the holiday weekend, a relative showed me how they protect their raspberries and strawberries from raccoons. Their electric wire set up is solar powered. I'm thinking of getting one like this for next year as for some reason, many birds nest in the fruit trees of my little orchard. Might as well wire off the entire area.
