As Cicero said, “Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others.”
Squirt gun update: I definitely should have gone for bigger and badder! I've certainly been able to annoy the little sucker, but he can always fly out of my reach and eventually comes back. It's certainly been entertaining though!
I do have two small feeding stations set up on the other side of the house that he isn't bothering, so I guess that's my real workaround for now.
The bird may well prevail in your battle with him simply because he has what all other animals have: all the time in the world. All the annoying animal habits are exercised by them 24 hours a day. You can’t sit out there with your squirt gun for 24 hours a day. He’s a smart bird and after a bit he will learn that if you’re not sitting out where he can see you, your yard is safe for him to come into.Originally Posted by rosarugosa

Yes, it has already occurred to me that he can make this his life's work, and I'm certainly not goin to let it become mine!
Well, you have certainly created an interesting connection/interaction with nature, rr.

But this may change once the nest is built, followed by the eggs then the baby chicks need food and support. Keep us posted please.

Will do, and I have read that this behavior (apparently not uncommon) only lasts for a finite time, so I think you're right, Razz.But this may change once the nest is built, followed by the eggs then the baby chicks need food and support. Keep us posted please.

People who drive manual transmissions and then let their car slowly roll back when stopped at a light. Guy this morning let his keep rolling back. I was originally probably 10ft behind him. He nearly hit my front bumper. I was hitting my horn and his car just kept rolling back. Finally stopped. I saw him do that to other cars on the rest of the commute. I hate people
