Well as expected I smashed my cold record at my block this morning previous record 17.1 new record for this morning 13.3 !!!!! Cairns aero hit 13.1 as well as the racecourse with innisfail aero recording a bone chilling 10.4 !!!!

Dormant great to hear your story and experience. My fruit trees are all still young but i have mangosteen, durian, pulasan, rambutan, abiu, 4x different citrus, guava, mangoes, custard apples, jaboticaba, achacha and a few others still accumulating them at the moment will be a long time before many of them fruit.....Like you say i think cockatoos, bats etc will prove to be problematic on certain trees time will tell.
