"Creative Scarecrows is a community based group with concerns over the use of propane cannons for starling control.  Farm Friends has appreciated working with this group on improved starling control strategies.  Their blog is presented as more information for you to consider in your starling management decisions.  Farm Friends does not endorse all the opinions expressed there but consider them valuable for you to know.  We encourage you to read their blog and participate in it."  Henry Bierlink, Policy Director for Farm Friends

Creative Scarecrows has a new blog, straight from a local farm, called "Creative Alternatives to Cannons" at http://creativescarecrows.blogspot.com/ . The blog is about the adventures in a blueberry field of the good guys, a researching resident and a farmer, trying to outsmart the villains--roaming flocks of starlings who want to gorge on the berries.
