The last few days here have been filled with much drama. The grapes which grow in the courtyard and the garden have been attacked by the starlings which hang around in masses waiting for the moment when my mother-in-law is out of sight. At every opportunity they descend upon the very sweet grapes in Hitchcock like fashion and devour the tasty morsels. It is a never ending battle, as soon as she chases them from the garden they attack the grapes in the courtyard. In some cases leaving nothing but a clump of stems still attached to the vine.
