couldn't hurt to try. The clover has white flowers and the puncture vine (aka goat weed or goathead weed) has yellow flowers, so even if you couldn't see the pattern of the leaves, you'd have a few days once you saw any yellow flowers, if any goat weed did come up.
It takes a little work, but you can get them to stay away by shooing them and hiding the food until they find a new food source. I do the same with grackles.. i will leave the dogs out, take all the food away and even drain the fountain.. then they go find a new yard to victimize. There is a house about 2 blocks away that i can see is the unfortunate pigeon target house.. better them than me though. They are smart and will figure out which place provides the least resistance.
I followed the tracks and they coyote went back to the large plot of state land that borders mine. The tracks stopped right where the hardware cloth around the chicken coop beings, as you can see in the first picture. 
All the wild birds are going to have a rude awakening in the next few days. I am almost done putting up bird netting around the hard cloth along the whole run. I am putting out some feed for them for a few weeks out in the fro yard to ease them into not eating all of our feed. Inca doves, white wing doves & sparrows are the main ones.
Funny, I was just thinking HOW.. since friends are sending me pics of all the snow out there... and sure enough.. it was pre-recorded!! They need to hang it up tho, let the poor little guy sleep in!
Darn!!! Larry is so pretty too!!

This morning there were fresh coyote tracks by the coop.
