MK38 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 A couple of mates set up in other fields will help, if you are on your own it will be tough.... though you could try tying plastic bags/sacks to posts so they flap about in the wind, or putting them on a rotary instead of decoys..... that might keep them moving around. Otherwise you'll have to do alot of walking between fields playing scarecrow Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cranfield Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 If you can't get all that before tomorrow, go into the Farm and see if you can find some old fertilizer bags and tie them on sticks and place them on the fields you want to keep the birds off.

Ferret Master Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 I'll try and make some bags up on bamboo canes as well. Still gonna go for the one pattern on the rape and the other on the other side of the hedge on the wheat? FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
