Since my Breba crop is just a few days from ending this year, I want to extend an invitation for Seattle area Forum Members to come over for a Fig Tasting around 7:15pm tonight or tomorrow, so if you are interested please send me an e-mail before 5pm or call if you have my phone number.  Perhaps a Fig Pizza after the Tasting at the local Flying Squirrel Pizza Parlor?

While out picking this morning, I had two welcome visitors and caught this one on my camera :)

 

 

A female Anna's Hummingbird :)


Since picking last night I was also visited by another guest who left this for me:

 

I think the hole all the way through this Desert King is in case a quick exit was necessary ;)

Oh, this is soooo cute!  Hummingbirds are so adorable!  And yes, he probably is the one who made all of those little pecks into your fig and ate half of it :-D!  Yesterday I had one fig almost ripe from my Black Mission but I noticed that it two tiny marks so I decided to pick it early.  I made the mistake of waiting for the last three figs because I really wanted them ripe...well I waited to long because all three were decimated! Yup, these cute little guys can do some damage.
