They made a come back and surprisingly, years later, a group still comes to that house every day to visit.<br /><br />My FIL's neighborhood had a buzzard problem. We are talking some really nasty crap there.novahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02324749633489670413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604792445866772599.post-37224005491730370342010-12-28T06:47:18.850-05:002010-12-28T06:47:18.850-05:00Believe it or not they crapped all over the decoys...Believe it or not they crapped all over the decoys. It's actually a recording of several things played in a loop. an owl's hunting screech, a hawks call, a crow's distress call, and something else, a Pterodactyl I think. It is the most annoying noise you have ever heard. Works pretty good. They roost a block away and crap all over everything over there.<br /><br />Jim in MO.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604792445866772599.post-75455997595352443412010-12-28T06:13:35.007-05:002010-12-28T06:13:35.007-05:00Jim,

Their vocab is around 20 words...probably more. They can count up to 10 or so too. Smart birds.novahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02324749633489670413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604792445866772599.post-41491350030972186122010-12-28T06:10:18.536-05:002010-12-28T06:10:18.536-05:00energyecon,

They got so bad a few years back it took a Bobcat to scrape up the Crow crap every morning and people were afraid to go to the park. Think "The Birds".<br />Really like the story.<br /><br />Jim in MO.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604792445866772599.post-87603407133618855822010-12-27T21:55:10.420-05:002010-12-27T21:55:10.420-05:00How long does G hang onto the phone?
