Tweety Was An Axe Murderer
hi Kathie,
There were two types of birds which attacked my plants. One
was a small grey bird called a Touhee (i think) This bird is a
little bigger than a sparrow. I don't know the name of the
other bird. It is about the size of a bluejay, all grey, with
a long narrow beak which hooks down at the end.
The larger bird can dig up 100 square feet of buried vines in
about 15 minutes. I've had problems with these guys for years.
