Squirrels are taking a few but I think the thorns are doing their job. 3rd year for this bush if I remember right.

Supposedly some painted rocks can help deter some animals if you put them out before the actual berries. I've had luck with a water source keeping birds off my tomatoes. Apparently they were just thirsty. Those berries look delicious!
