Found bibs at the supermarket so they came yesterday. Very cute but already being tested by spat out medicine. Melbcat is not pleased :(
I also found what looks like cabbage moth eggs on the nasturtium seedlings. That was fast. I put them out for part of the day yesterday. First time they’ve been out.
Edit: Another male flower. I have 8 cut male flowers in the fridge, one fertilised female and the rest of the females are barely forming.
The ratio and timing is so off I’m afraid these plants are a little bit silly
I have nasturtiums rambling around under the raspberries for that reason. Although the raspberries seem to have a lot of other bugs this year - which the currawongs are enjoying.
I’ve been enjoying watching the young currawong, it’s still a bit uncoordinated in its attempts to snare bugs. It is also quite fascinated by the kinetic sculpture - it spent a bit of time pulling at it to make the whole thing move.

nasturtiums are what I plant to attract the moths away from the lettuce
and moths and butterflies need something to eat too 👍
I have lady bugs on the jalapenos which is awesome 🙂🌶️🐞
