Interesting indeed. As well as a multitude of wood pigeons all over
the area, I have at least one couple of ring-necked doves nesting in
the trees above my garden. The CD idea sounds interesting, and I might
try that. I assume I need to thread them onto strings hanging from
poles above the plants so that they catch the light and frighten the
cabbage lovers?

No no no. I find little speakers with a max output power of 2W is
enough. The CD however is another problem; one would feel that the
Op.62 No.6 of Spring Song by Mendelssohn would be appropriate, but the
cabbage lovers will start pecking at your speakers. It is now clear
that the public of Europe has spoken in unisson: Finland entry at the
Eurovision Song Contest *is* the definitive voice of Europe. I very
much recommend this CD, so do all the Pixies ;o)

You may be onto something here.
I reckon I can do a double whammie and frighten *any* bird, man or
beast if I use the Lordi DVD instead.
And suddenly, a great recycling option opens up of what to do with all
those free CD's of the best summer tunes of 1955 and Elvis's
Scratchiest Hits our daily and Sunday newspapers are so keen to dump on
us.
