Yeah, maybe I should go out and get a 50# bag of seed and dump it in a old wheelbarrow. I had a friend in Ohio who had a similar problem with not only birds, but coons after his sweet corn also. He got a cd of animal sounds at the zoo in Columbus and re-recorded a lions roar, elephant roar, baboons and so on from the cd. He then rigged a player up to a motion sensing device in the garden and it would play back the roars at high volume. It worked. His first attempt at this approach was a radio that would come on with people talking. He said that worked for a while, but the critters became accustomed to it. But the last time we talked, he said the lions roar is still working.
