[QUOTE="Lycanthrope, post: 456974, member: 562"] birds are crazy, ive been told that if you get enough berries in an area, you can essentially outproduce what the birds can eat. I know the birds were knocking a lot of my berries on the ground, as they were eating others. They seem less interested in berries on the ground than they are on the bush unfortunately. Also Im exploring adding raptor habitat, if I can get some raptors to nest in proximity to my orchard, that will essentially solve my bird problem. I built a kestrel nest box and put it up a few years ago, but never got them to nest there, blackbirds did instead. I think it wasnt high enough off the ground. I got a few old telephone poles from a neighbor so Im going to put it up higher this summer and maybe get some to move in next year, hopefully. Also birds HATE lasers, they make laser powered bird chasers that are essentially lasers mounted on a random moving head of sorts that is supposed to be very effective, but they arent cheap and I have no power source at my land yet, so Id have to figure out some kind of solar or pay to have power installed, which would cost a lot.
