Early Morning Persimmon Thief busted

[dok0619]

ok, just a note ahead of video. Possum is still alive and thieving nightly lol. My wife is getting frustrated with the local possums raiding her persimmon trees nightly so has started getting up early to try to break up their routine lol.

You're south of me in FL so yours are likely ripe.....these here are still pretty green and boy, are they sour!
A few more weeks and the local deer will take care of these, as they're outside the fence.

yeah we live in JAX and not a lot of land but its full of critters. We get a lot of cats, rats/mice, raccoons and possums in the garden... Persimmons have been turning ripe the last few weeks and possums and rats are taking more than their fair share lol
