Found this video: But i'm not sure if that fake bird would scare my duckies to a heart-attack.

Imagine what such a terror-bird would do to one of our ducks! :barnie Have not seen them here, but i have also not explicitly looked for a »big black bird« in the sky. Sweet dreams y'all! :(

I learned something new today! Thank you very much! I really thought vultures live only in the »old world«. Well i was dead wrong, and there are vultures here in WV, black vultures and they are not cuddly: »Black vultures threaten livestock, homes across state« :th

That's the job of the drakes apart from making ducklings. So sorry about Daisy! :hugs I don't know what i would do to a hawk taking one of my boys. I'd probably rip out its feathers one by one…

No weapons at my home too - except for my tongue that is… ;) But you can build a slingshot relatively easy and shoot pebbles at any unwanted guests - or ice cubes at this time of the year.

One of my colleagues told me that her husband was shooting an Owl that had an eye on their chickens with a BB-gun. Not lethal, no injuries to the Owl, just a painful warning to stay away. That owl never came back, she told me. - I'm feeding the crows here, they have so far kept all birds of prey...
