I'm skeptical it would work well even if it works at first. I've seen birds get used to things similar to this. I agree Cecil...of course for $50 it might be worth a try. BTW...found them offered at several places for different prices. Also found this video about them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgW4KWe2WMI And found this full size decoy: Full Size Gator Decoy The gator decoys would almost be worth it for the prank factor. People would freak! Ha Ha!

What about building an alligator armature over a remote control boat and moving it towards a bird? If you could open the mouth that would be even more fun to watch!
If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

Ha Ha....I bet you are on to something! The heck with the birds...with some folks I know, I would have tears running down my cheeks as that gator started heading towards them!

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

I want to make an apology to Dave Davidson for the following quote I made. Saying he advocated shooting federally protected birds was stepping over the line. He never said such a thing. It just dismays me to see these threads that seem to tacitly imply shooting federally protected animals as an alternative as long as one does not get caught. I guess my point is I'm not sure we should be advocating shooting federally protected birds on a public forum especially by a moderator.
