That is, unless it was the goats. But they haven’t been sighted in months, and I would have expected way more damage if they were the culprits.

Sadly, we’re not in a very critter-ful area. No deer, and few raccoons that I know of. I don’t think there’s anything around here that is tall enough to reach the oranges, or small enough to climb the very scrawny tree yet strong enough to break the oranges free. It’s a good idea, though. I would think a European Swallow would be more likely than an African one, however.

wow! mary’s right. plus, it could be the critters most likely. but we just harvested our 1st bananas since all the hurricanes. we lost many that never matured, so i can relate to the disappointment! kathy

Consider those first fruits given to God. It won’t hurt as much. And bring some Satsmaus for Thanksgiving.
Love you.

Are you sure it wasn’t an animal that took them, like a raccoon or a deer?
