Default Bird of prey to act as 'skarecrow'.

Has anyone had any success in selecting an imitation bird of prey to
frighten off birds which damage our bowling green when hunting for leather
jackets. I think the culprits are carrion crows, magpies and possibly the
odd fox. The main damage is to the green's edges but it is quite extensive.
We will treat appropriately for leather jackets.
