Blueberries are ripening


Finally the blueberry bush  is producing fruit.  The bush had been planted at the side of the house for years, not getting enough direct sunlight.  A few summers ago, we transferred it to the lower garden and it immediately did better, finally producing some big berries. 

This year, we seem to have a nice crop of blueberries ripening.  The entire plant is covered! We haven't netted the bush...yet.  But as the catbirds gather, I have a feeling that there will be some competition.
