Give up, loose interest? Are you serious? \:D These birds are very very persistent and intelligent. Once they find an easy meal they will be back time and time again. I've actually had them waiting in a nearby tree for me to go back in. And they instinctively take a jab at anything that moves, even if it's too big for them to eat.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
