The autumn arrival of hungry northern birds promoted a real interest in the Rowan berries. The garden berry crop became steadily depleted, finally cleaned up by some local Jackdaws. The whole process took only about a week. Hawthorn berries are still plentiful but they don’t seem to be as tasty as the Rowans.
