Knock on the door etc.

Half asleep in my favourite chair here yesterday dreaming after letting my old hens out for there weekly type bath & a fly     & my Joyce here wakes me up as such, as the next door neighbour had just come over with some pigeon news of sorts Crows were in my loft apparently, by what she was watching out her window & had been taking eggs to their glory & she just thought I may have liked to have known what was going on type of thing there while I slept through the middle of the day here .

Always something to watch out for, did you want them to hatch?

another side splitter, thought yer love story was good but this tops it, ever thought of writing your memoirs sure you'd get a bob or two

Known some fanciers wiped out via crows.
Bill Butterfield, the C.U. president of Cananda told me when I stay with him for a while, that he had his complete youngsters wiped out . Crow would take them for feed etc. Have know a few here too.
Then I see some encourage Crows, and lay great store by them.
Mind will give sparrow hawk short thrift and mve them on. As they do Magpies.
In winter months they will kill and eat squirrells./ etc.

No doubt Knackered you know that crows are omnivores and will eat anything.

Good idea to blow a couple of hen eggs and fill with mustard and leave in easy reach outside the loft.

I used the wife's ginger buicuits ( home made) never had a problem.

Did have a pair nest in near bye tree but never a problem and they do see off sparrowhawks.

Regards.

Memoirs I would sooner hug a tree here etc Rog than cut it down & waste it on such an issue as such. That being said thou could maybe write a story or two about One Loft type Races filled with my thoughts here maybe if you like    .

Might just try the mustard trick etc Misty never really been an issue here till now Local crow brigade (Currawong style) has found a new taste sensation here thou it appears     going by all the half eating eggs I found when I went down to the loft yesterday as such. Now, Me     being me here     never really minded them jumping in the bird bath as such at times       but suspect now I'm working up to an aggro type situation now to find a final solution here to the whole affair    .
