pigeon-owlThese days a lot of people are spreading seed for winter lawns. While they’re at it, they’re feeding pesky pigeons and our other fine feathered friends that gobble up the grass seed almost as fast as it’s laid down.
A neighbor of mine has set out a plastic owl with an evil eye that’s supposed to scare the birds off her seeded yard. As is the case every time I see these scarecrows used, I’ve noticed that the doves and pigeons didn’t get fooled for long.

However ferocious the owls look, the live birds have them pegged as a non-threat, maybe because they’ve figured out the fakes never move.
Trying to stop the feeding frenzy seems to me to be a lost cause – so much so, that I’m half-expecting the owl to come to life and join in the feast.
