5. You mock me
I hope it doesn't realize that the door is open. The last thing I need is a crow inside my apartment.

10. I do not mock you.
I read your post and thought: "Yivver must pay heed to this bird, for she carries tidings of great joy. Lo, the Groove of Yivver doth returneth!"

32. Nopers ;) She's a Yellow Naped Amazon..
I think the bird in your picture (I'm assuming your bird :) ) is a Double Yellow Headed Amazon.

I thought about getting Bingo one of those perches, but I thought they were so close to the ground she'd hop off and never use it. I just might have to get loud mouth that today :)

13. say "shoooo"
and stop putting out birdfeed--it's bound to go away.

or call: here, kitty kitty kitty. (that always gets rid of the birds in my neighborhood)

maybe it wants to be your friend?

(or maybe it's a sign.....spooky music here....did you ever see the mini series "the stand" by stephen king? it opens with this bird (a crow) sitting on a fence ... watching ... and the song "don't fear the reaper" begins playing.....it was a "sign")

:scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared:

16. Birds do not give evil eyes. They are not capable.
Frankly, you're insane.

31. No such thing as Canadian birds
Why fly north to the land of ice and misery? They get blown off course by a lack of border control. I have seen it.

21. I've got this Blue-Jay driving me nuts................
he/she must be looking for a mate, because he starts at the crack of dawn and does not shutup until its really dark. I throw out my old bread for the birds or squirrel which ever comes first. My brother must have pissed him off what he ground it up with the lawn mower cause he kept buzzing by my deck making a racket. Damn bird is camped out in the tree near my bedroom.

and walk toward it banging the spoon on the pot as loudly as you can.
