I don't know about strawberries, but I know that doesn't work for
peaches. I would have been happy to let the birds have some of the
peaches when I had a peach tree, but they tended to take a peck out
of one peach and then move onto the next one. That's not sharing
that's pilfering or vandalism.
I like the suggestions that people have made about using various
nets, but that isn't all that practical for a peach tree.
... And a shotgun doesn't leave much squirrel left to replace the
stolen peaches. It also tends to annoy the neighbors when you are in
suburbia. :-)
