Safe for now

I thought I better not delay the project anymore. Originally wanted to use some pvc pipes to make the cage but thought this will be much simpler and cost efficient. Found some old vinyl coated wire mesh and managed to put together this cage with some cable tie. They should be safe for now.

Self healing

This always happens whenever there is a heat spell. The birds will try and eat my peyote. Sometime they are successful sometimes not. Increasingly they are are finding my peyotes tasty. You can see a  part of the succulent eaten leaving a deep cut. Luckily they do recover and heal. Important not to let it get into contact with water or they will rot.  I need to put up some protection soon.
