I had a photo show up on Facebook as a memory from 10 years ago, of an Owl Bird Scare we bought for about $20.00 at the time. These were marketed as the best bird scare on the market and when you think birds are scared of owls, it sort of makes sense - its head was on a spring and bobbed up and down in the wind.
Well we we amazed from the beginning how the wild birds ignored this "statue" in the garden, actually sitting on it during the day. Later on, I took it to work and put it up in the glasshouse, but it proved to be a useless piece of junk.
When we emptied the shed when we moved, this owl unfortunately found itself on the rubbish pile. Maybe in another life it will get recycled into something more useful - maybe not.
