Attack of a New, More Devastating Sunflower Foe

Shouldn't be a surprise other than the fact that NONE bothered the sunflowers of years past. The difference? Those were fewer, all located behind or closer to cabin compound buildings vs out in the main compound garden. With nothing between their common concentrations along the marsh reeds but 60 yards of open ground. Must admit this beauty was like a massive yellow billboard.
Cue chickenwire and rubber snake!*

*Much more impressive if inflated but suffered too many holes in last year's service among the pumpkins.
