I have a bit from ma mate on the garden right in front of the huts, stock doos and racers have been oot and havent bothered the birds in any way and the wind has been blowing since i put it up, no problems with scaring the birds, havent seen any preditors and the birds have been oot since i got it from him. The only reason i got s trip was because i had a bird taken with the Peregrine, it may no help with the Peregrine problem but have no problem with the Sparry, touch wood. But this robin bassa that is taken money off PENSIONERS should be reported and dealt with, YA ROBIN BASSA HOLD YIR HEID IN SHAME.
