KingFisher decoys?
We have a blasted KingFisher that is visiting our pond and had taken
a couple of our goldfish I actually saw him take one of them and this morning I heard him chattering as he attempted to get another. He failed cause all the fish are hiding in the 'koi castle' (a net on aluminum frame in the shape of a tunnel). They are still spooked by his attack Friday. I saw on the internet these fake gold fish, that are weighted or tied down, that are used as decoys. Do they work? Read one story where a kingfisher got so frustrated at trying to get the fake goldfish that he gave up. My thought is the kingfisher could go for the fake fish, make enough of a scene that all my fish could hide before being taken. Would that work? Has anyone tried it? Any other ideas? It is so weird to be stalked by a kingfisher now. We have had fish in our pond for three years and never had anything bother our fish. |
