Peaches are especially delicious when they are just picked at the peak of their ripeness. The squirrel has indeed a wonderful prize :)

Alas, I know the feeling well. Speedy the Garden Mouse always steals my best tomatoes - just when they are perfectly ripe and juicy - and my mutts always seem to give him a free pass. He must bribe them with Milkbones stolen from someone else.

Goodness! What a fantastic photo! We have rabbits that like to sneak into our garden and make holes in the cantaloupe. We play this game to see who is going to get to them first. Great tale...

Be always safe,
Karen

A nut for the mutt? I think not. She is certainly not one of those bad little puppies and I think she would rather have meat.

Patrick, try wrapping the trunk of the tree with extra heavy duty aluminum foil from the time the fruit becomes attractive to the squirrels until after the threat is gone. If there aren't neighboring trees or wires for them to use to gain access into the tree, the foil should prevent them from climbing up the trunk. Dick

LoL. Darn squirrels. We have them in our backyard from the park across the street. No peaches but they'll eat bread.

Double-ought-six shotgun shells ought to take care of that problem, plus you'd have a mess of squirrels and dumplings.

Hey, what are you worrying about, Patrick, what the squirrels leave, the birds take and, what the birds leave, turn rotten before you can do a little plucking. This from the voice of experience with a peach tree.
