Joe, I too have still never had a Great-tailed in over a quarter century set foot on this property that I know of. But if you want the Crow people , you have to do better than dog food...They are bums, Mine are completely spoiled, insistent, greedy and hid chow from each other...They are on the limb in the oak over my house every morning early letting me know it is time for something tasty. They don't even fly anymore when I walk outside and are on the feeder before I can get 25 ft. away. They are a mess. Was gone most of 6 wks. this spring...But they were in my face less than 15 minutes after I drove up the hill to the house...They must know the sound of my truck or maybe the looks. They are out there right now, those bums, sitting in the shade quietly in the oaks...I'm sure ready for some other leftovers...This morning is was salmon skin, stale crackers and a chopped weenie. -- Brush Freeman 361-655-7641 http://texasnaturenotes.blogspot.com/ Finca de los Alacranes., Utley,Texas
