Had the same problem with parots and my Almond tree (yes almonds grow on trees) in Perth, tryed everything to stop them eating them, plastic bags tied to branches, hose, tin foil...
I don't think we got one ripe almond in the end of it. We even rang almond farms and crap, no help... :x

the tree is rather huge fents with lots of branches coming up directly from the ground and other plants underneath and around it. I'm going to try bagging the individual fruit as they start to ripen. see how that goes. bloody birdies!

didnt care with the apricots and plums because there is enough to share, but with the figs we have waited so long for the fruit and the birdies are so sneaky and quick.

? Which version are you using? On wat platform?

I've never, ever had Illustrator crash on me before.

Except that one time where I tried to do a soft blend over shapes containing about 90,000 anchor points.
