My first strawberry of the season ripened today.

Unfortunately a bird got to it before I did, so had to sling it!

Will have to decide if I am going to net the plants. Some years I do, and some, I don't bother.

Frustrating that birds will take one peck at the berry, (evidenced by the beak-shaped impression left) and the remains are just waste!
