Does anyone have any experience of bowerbirds eating vegetables
recently?

Two of my friends who have been gardening for many years in different
locations around Sydney tell me that they have been recently having
their gardens attacked by bower birds. The birds are having a big
impact on their productivity.

Has anyone else had this experience?

Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this might be happening
recently?

Has anyone got any suggestions about how to stop bower birds from
eating vegetables?
