We never had a usable crop of blueberries until I built a cage 5 feet wide 
and 6 feet tall over the row of blueberries (single file row).  The cage is 
covered with 1" chicken wire, and has an old screen door for access.  This 
keeps the deer and rabbits away in the winter, and the birds in the summer.  
Before this, the rabbits ate everything that stuck above the snow in winter, 
and the birds ate the berries as they ripened.
