The zone of risky agriculture

It i sthat time of the year again. The grapes are getting rape. But we will not have a chance to try them. They will be destroyed by somebody else....




They started to spit all over the porch a week ago or so.
We were thinking of how to protect th eporch from them (e.g. wrap it with a metal net or something), but it seems impossible.
So I was thinking how to get at least a few decent shots of them. Did not have to invent anything though.
.






First they were spotted by girls. Julia and Lucy jumped outside with a camera. Therefore about half (or more) of the pictures are from Lucy.



I tried to count them. Looks like there are seven, although could be more. Last year we had only three or four. The gang is growing.






They realized that they were caught with a smoking gun, but did not rush to leave.



Eventually they got tired of two constantly flashing cameras and retreated. But without much of enthusiasm. 




Something like that. And they forgot to clean after themselves.



Fifteem minutes or so later a couple of them came back and climbed to the top (I am not suer if they left at all).

Kind of hiding.






I had to shake them off. They did not have any problem jumping down from 10 feet. Have not seen them for the last two hours. But I am sure they will come back tomorrow.

From my point of view they deserve something like this....



On the other hand, I can not do it. They are too smart and cute. Plus they seem to be kids/teenagers....

summer, racoons, home
