cut down the tree
No,the noisy nubian never-do wells must be destroyed. On behalf of the earth and future generations it must be done. We can always take photos and stuff a few of the fleabags to placate the enviroMENTALists.
I'm going to have to get to know you a bit better....I thought you were serious about the doing away with.....Just having a little fun. Crows are magnificent birds.
If only people really saw it that way ........Humans - are they fair game? I think they should be....murderous, smelly, stupid creatures...do away with them...the bring nothing but destruction and death to the planet....
Well done ! I'am glad you found a sensible solution to your problem without killing anything .I think I figured out my own solution...
I've always had a bird feeder (very nice "condo" style unit on a high pole) and usually in the summer we don't fill it up since there's plenty of food to be had. We'd prefer they start eating more bugs.
Well, with the heat and shortage of bugs the small birds have flocked off. Turns out it was them keeping the crows away since they're really territorial. I refilled the feeder on Friday and they''ve been back in full force and guess what? NO crows to be found.
These little birds attack the crows like Spitfires on a Heinkel bomber and drive them away.

I know that farmers have had it in for crows since before the first scarecrow was invented, but I wonder what they do about them nowadays.
We have crows, you see, and these crows have developed a bad habit of congregating in the big tree outside our bedroom window at 5:AM every day and their "cawing" wakes us up. Of course, once our alarm clock goes off at 6:30 they flock off...but we're losing that last 90 minutes of essential REM sleep every day.
What do I have to do, build a scarecrow and hang it in the tree or is there a simpler, permanent way of dealing with them apart from cutting down the tree?
I'm sure the local farmers would rather I shoot them...

Now that I've filled the feeder we've also had the Blue Jays return.
Ah blue jays...the second noisest bird. Do they have a song that doesn't sound like a dying elk?
