The Bird-X Prowler Owl is a Washout

Bird-X Prowler Owl Bird Deterrent


At first, we figured the holes showing up in all our tomatoes came courtesy of those damned squirrels who live in the oak trees hanging over the yard. We thought that until one day I saw a mockingbird land on a tomato cage and snack on a big ripe tomato. The next day found me at Wild Birds Unlimited looking at "bird deterrents." Besides all those phony-looking stationary owl statues, they sold a "decoy [that] resembles the ultimate, most-feared aerial predator; the Great Horned Owl, which catches and eats almost anything that moves." How could I resist? I shelled out 50 hard-earned smackers and took a Bird-X Prowler Owl home with me.
