Working at a ranch underneath this fig tree today. It is just lousy with figs. Look at this photo. They're unripe and green but this tree is just bursting with them. Maybe a hundred of them? Maybe more? There are three more fig trees next to this one, with just as many figs. I'll be working here for the next two months so I'll be able to get more than my share of them. Ranch foreman says they usually just let the peafowl have them. I'll be over there kneecapping peafowl if they get near my figs. I'm REALLY looking forward to some homegrown figs, even if they aren't from my home. Bonus, Indian peahen sighting. There's probably 20 of these things here and are they noisy. Good grief.
