are you sure it is birds and not ground
squirrels instead? i have very little damage
from birds here, but much more from ground
squirrels (chipmunks).

It's odd, but I've *never* seen a chipmunk near my property. We have
some squirrels, but no chipmunks at all. I've lived there almost 13
years now. Very strange.
