I would like to apologise to the possum who lives over the back from me
whom I have been accusing of ripping chillies from my bushes. I now have
circumstantial evidence that it is in fact the ibises that stroll
nonchalantly through the vege garden that have been ripping the cayennes
off the bushes. I am not saying that possum is completely innocent,
since it is unlikely that an ibis could take a bite out of an eggplant
while it was still on the bush; but he is less guilty than I thought he
might have been. Of course, the real bad guys are still the grasshoppers,
and if the ibises would eat them I would consider the lost cayennes an
investment. I just wish they would eat the whole thing...
