@ct_bergstrom For several weeks, we are feeding corvids in our neighborhood. We got to the point they come regularly near our balcony and even seem to understand the signal – rattling of a plastic box where I keep kibble and peanuts for them.


They are reluctant to come to the balcony itself – perhaps it is too exposed and too close to local passage. Nothing works so far, even a tempting pile of yummy peanuts on a plate. Magpies, who are local scouts, occasionally touchdown, but that is all.

I am seeking advice, how to make the balcony more inviting to them. Perhaps I could bring some tree branch as a perch? Or maybe put an artificial crow, pretending to eat peanuts here? All suggestions welcome.
