Guavas are maturing and wild birds have been enjoying the fruit with us ♥️

I would rather have birds feast on my produce because they won't be finding pesticide-free fruits elsewhere. Eat, thrive and have a good time my feathered friends.

The tree is vibing with insects, and yet I rarely find fruits that are damaged. I eat the fruit right after plucking off the branch, usually while walking doggos.

Sure I don't get every single fruit for myself, but then it isn't me growing it all by myself either.

@harshad that is one awesome fly!

Indeed – is there an iNaturalist entry for it? At first I thought it was a wasp-mimic moth … then I noticed the legs.

Ah, they are here in Sri Lanka too! I'll be on the lookout.
