Scarecrows and Ravens

The raven pair moved in last year and they took over the skies and treetops around the place.  They forced magpies to find perimeter places to live and the robins chose to leave.  Now the big black birds have claimed the ground as well. 

If a scarecrow in the garden won't keep out the cherry eating magpies, starlings, etc,  and the woodchucks and other pests out of the corn patch, the ravens will see to the job.  The 2 ravens have no fear of me or the scarecrow and they watch over the garden and cherry trees.

The rat terrier dogs growl and bark at the scarecrow but the ravens saunter around the ground next to him looking for tidbits.

Paper plate scarecrows on sticks move in the wind and keep the rodents out.
