Which, given that sunrise is not till after 7 a.m., I did consider a bit much. Their enthusiasm will probably wane after the first weekend, though - I hope so.
The canned guavas were almost certainly the tropical guavas, which are much larger (and require a warmer climate). These are the little so-called strawberry guavas, which used to be found in every New Zealand garden. Small and deliciously tart, and they make the loveliest jelly - very tasty and quite beautiful, with its clear, ruby colour. I freeze them until I have enough for a batch of jelly, eating a few fresh as I go, then they're a useful addition to the wood pigeons' diet when things get lean coming into winter.
