Crow wont go away from my house

[Ligier]

Have you tried shooting this crow? Or is it only other people that Americans shoot?

We only shoot school kids. /sarcasm

It's a sign that something bad is going to happen to you. I'd be careful OP. In fact I probably wouldn't leave the house and I'd turn off the gas and electricity. Food for thought...

[Ravenblade]

This crow will remember you. So be careful. As it will tell other crows, crow generation after crow generation, they will be watching you and your next kin. You will never know what will happen next.

Teach it to say "Corn!"

As others have said, see if any animal services will take it in.

If not, and you don't want it around, get some dried chili peppers (hot ones, such as thai bird's eye chilis), soak in water for a while, put the water in a spray bottle and spray the areas the bird frequents. Yeah, I'm a jerk.

There's a reason they call it a murder.

Birds are unaffected by Capsaicin. It is how chilli plants spread their seeds to other areas, by deterring non-birds by amassing Capsaicin in the fruits and seeds. That will, however, clear away mammal pests. They smear fences with Ghost Pepper paste in southern Africa to keep elephants away from crops.

You sure about that? I shot the leg off one with a BB gun lol. It hung around for years after with one leg.

Hur hur I shot and hurt an animal hur hur so funny.

Why the fuck would you do something like that, you cruel bastard?

Ahh, that makes sense. I use it for mice, rabbits, raccoons, and squirrels. Very effective to keep them away from my tomato plants.

I have to say OP I think you're incredibly lucky to have this sort of relationship with a wild creature, especially something as smart as a crow.

[kunah]

Must be an attempted murder.

LOL! humor not lost.

Ok so today my idiot neighbor let there dogs run loose as usual (both shih tzu's or however it is spelled) and they came into my yard (yet again) and were barking/harassing the shit out of the crow, so I went out side and scared them off and one of the adults seriously dive bombed the SHIT at one of them. Like it was freaking laser guided missile. It didn't connect but so close.

I was super pissed off (Usually they just let the little dogs come over here and poop in my yard+bark at me in my window) and I have asked them to restrain them before, so today I told them I had video of there dogs in my yard harassing me and if it ever happens again I am calling animal control.

So I probably lost a neighbor (They are meth heads anyway, I'll probably end up shanked) but hopefully there stupid little dogs won't harass me and my yard and my yard-crow.

[Dhrizzle]

I would just like..scare it away or something, but I have a really weird fear of birds.

hopefully there stupid little dogs won't harass me and my yard and my yard-crow.

You've come a long way :>

[sats]

Get it to read The Raven, just so it can say nevermore. i'll give you all the monies in my pocket.

[Forgettable]

my yard-crow.

That's cute

[Daez]

Oh and the movie that instilled my dislike of birds was called "Willy the Sparrow" the entire thing is on youtube!

I hate birds.

You based your entire worldview about something based on a fictional movie. Damn, you must be part of what people talk about when they say games cause people to kill people!

[Skeppio]

It must be Medivh!!! Listen to its prophecy!

Thread over, everyone go home, this user has already won.

You ever have a fear of lice? Those things are terrifying. They make you itch.

Well probably my last update on the matter, today the crow was nowhere to be seen, then I saw it up in a tree with two bigger ones (Assuming its the parents) So it can fly now! Yaay its gone :P

Yeah, adult crows are fiercely territorial around their young (they would have dive-bombed you if you had started to harass the baby crow).

Awesome, and for the next 8 or so years there'll be a crow in the world telling his mates about Uncle Gumboy who chased off some nasty dogs when he was little.

Special bonus - if the crows stick around they may keep your yard clear of neighbour-dogs.
