On today’s edition of “Nature is a Jerk” we have whatever is removing huge #greentomatoes from the plants and just eating a few bites. This Jerk doesn’t wait for the tomatoes to turn red, doesn’t eat all of one before moving onto the next AND always chooses the #tomato I had my eye on. First, I was blaming #birds when it was just a few nibbles. Next, I was cursing #bunnies when it was more. But now, the tomatoes are being removed from higher up the plant and I assume it is a team. I’m thinking a duo of #Cardinals pecking at the stem with a #Raccoon using its creepy hands to hold the cage steady. Then a contingent of rabbits rolls the fallen fruit to a comfortable area where the whole team can relax together and enjoy it together. There might also be a small deer on the coaching staff. I’ve seen evidence of chest high nibbles I can’t attribute to anyone else. Unless those raccoons are going at it totem pole style…
