Birds can be a challenge ... hang foil in the trees (or other shiny things) to discourage all but the crows.
Not sure what to do if you get fig beetles though.

Aagh! I haven't had those yet! I sometimes see a bird perched on a branch and munching away. Sure enough, when i check there is a half-eaten fig. I don't mind feeding the birds, though. Last year something a lot bigger got at them - either a bear or a raccoon. They wiped the whole crop out and bent the tree almost to the ground!
