Nigel …..Come Here NOW!

Strawberry hanging baskets
We’ve got a strawberry plant growing in a basket, hanging from one of trees on the porch, which, I’ve noticed hasn’t been bearing much fruit and which  Nigel seems to have been paying a lot of attention too, so slightly suspicious, I decided to keep Nigel under surveillance, my eye on him ….

I discovered why our strawberry yield has been so low …..
Monkey eating strawberries
I don’t know who ate all the bananas, but I certainly know who ate all the strawberries!  What are we going to do with him?
