o.uk...
They seem to like broccoli! Mine at least.

I was wondering if I made a thin ply silhouette of a hawk and dangled it
over the veg. area would it do any good.

As for suggestions involving shotguns etc., not helpful, not original.

Thanks

Anything bright red seems to scare them off, at least it has in the past,
currently I'm having trouble with sprouts, they are being attacked by
something, don't know what, I assumed it was pidgeons but whatever they are
they were not put off by the red stuff I put down, I do wonder if it is
somethihg else as we have a variety of birds here.
