Hi Tweets...

Does anyone have any ideas on how to stop feral pigeons from wiping out all
of the food in the bird feeders, in a matter of minutes? (or so it seems)

I live in W. Seattle along Longfellow Creek, and lately, I have had anywhere
from 6 to 20 pigeons hanging out at my feeders at a time... they are tearing
up the ground, eating all of everything that is put out and making a big
mess...

They roost in the neighborhood and come to my place for meals... (I put out
NW Blend from WB Unlimited, as well as Niger, Suet and peanut pieces...)

I don't want to stop filling my feeders, because I also have a nice
assortment of winter area birds, including flickers, downeys, bushtits, pine
siskins, black cap and chestnut backed chickadees, Oregon juncos, nuthatches
and Steller's Jays around that I like to support and encourage...

Any ideas will be most appreciated. Thanks!
