Darn it, the phoebes left.

I have two garden plots with 3 foot fence surrounding each. There were phoebes that nested under my eaves
that would park on the fences and patrol them.
I had no bugs while they were here, now that they have raised their two broods and moved on I have squash bugs
and grasshoppers. Looks like I will lose the squash.

For the squash bug eggs, they are little gold balls in the crook of the veins. Squash them.
