"I
have been observing my ripening olives over the last few weeks, but
noticed a couple of days ago that the tree had been stripped. Couldn't
believe it, as it has never happened before, and was rather upset about
it. First I thought perhaps someone had come and picked them and then I
thought birds. I have currawongs hanging around here as though they own
the place and you once told me, after I had mentioned to you that they
were taking all my feijoa, that that was known to be happening in
Canberra. You gave me a reference to it I believe in a local bird
publication. Is there any published or other evidence that local birds
can do the same with olives?"
Anyone
else out there had problems with currawongs taking their olives?
