Hey 20xwater. Is that an old style maize variety?
I have grown a maize variety in the past and I remember it was like eating a mouthful of flour.
I've got an overload of beans this year as per normal. In the past I have preserved them but not this year.
Just getting ready to cook up this batch with some homegrown tomatoes and zucchinis.
If anyone around the Werribee area would like some pm me and come over and pick your own. They are getting a bit stiff but they are stringless. You may even get a tomato if you are lucky.

The only reason this bird got on the fence is because I let orange cat into the patch, before that it was following me around as I was picking tommies. I am going to humanely trap it and take it to the whoever it is that looks after these dirtbags.

Looks like a Indian minor, their creator is a very good keeper. Savage destructive and not worthy of any care in my opinion the more that are deposed of the better. Easy to trap so long as the trap is built right, they love the colour red. Once trapped leave it well alone and only attend it with the cover of darkness, they are as cunning as a fox. If you try to take charge during daylight hours the rest of the family will avoid the area where you place the trap, still in view but cunning to the point of avoiding the trap.

To me it looks like a small Starling, the introduced type, they tend to fly in family groups.
Whatever it is you can exterminate it if its a problem.

You are right about them loving the red colour. I also grow orange tomatoes and they don't touch those.

Doesnt matter the colour with berries though. If I dont net my blueberries soon enough , theyll be stripped in a day. The buggers are pretty smart and will find a way under the nets occasionally. I dont begrudge them a little feed occasionally though.
