2023 - What I did today

Over the last couple of days I've been repairing our fruit cage, mainly holes in the roof from squirrels dropping in. There is plenty of fruit developing on a couple of cherry trees inside but we are unlikely to get many as squirrels walk through the walls and roof to help themselves while they are still green. Also, while in there, something has been eating bites out of green red currants and leaving them in piles. I don't think it is squirrels but not sure what the culprit could be - rats? One of the plies was a metre up on what looked like an old wren's nest may be turned into a platform that was quite damp. I've always thought that blackbirds were the main pest of red currants and why they need netting. Last year I got 8kg of red currants and will be annoyed if I don't get the same this year.
The other thing I've been doing is watering. The onions were starting to go brown on the tips of some leaves and some young raspberry shoots have died back. I watered the fruit in the fruit cage this morning: raspberries, gooseberries, red/black currants then mowed a patch of grass to mulch round them all. Also watered the onions, leeks, peas and broadbeans. Nearly all the flowers on the broadbeans looked like they had been got by the robber bee. I've seen it suggested that flicking the flowers is an alternative way to fertilise them. I have my doubts but I'll soon find out.
