Ok, it's a double whammy of trauma for me this week- 'School Hellidays' plus Magpie Season.
The holidays I can manage with bikes, pool and Minecraft but I am needing help with the other.
Magpies and I are no friends, I have been swooped more times than I can count ( some by the same nester in Bundanoon six years running). I have done the ice cream box, sunnies, umbrella you name it, but with two children now I need to at least look like I have it under control.
Does anyone have any tried and true methods to manage these bastards in spring? ( Especially ones that need no hands, as I may have a stroller :-))
Cheers

That's manageable, I am carrying one for the terrorist threat anyway I guess....:-)
Use a picture of Ricky Stuart, that'll scare the birds...
I like this one.. he is one scarey mother
Dear God Ron, I would stab a child... surely that sort of thing is reportable to DOCS or at the very least the RSPCA or fashion police!!!
That does NOT work. One, I felt foolish riding along as if I was some frigging Spikey Anteater, two it just makes the maggies more gamer as they swoop in closer...no those things are far idiotic than stopping maggies from swooping you (and it doesn't stop them from laughing at you as well)
Where a hat with eyes on the back of your hat and the bird wont swooped you becuase it will think you are looking at it
it only swoop you if you are not looking thats why where a hat with eyes on the back of your hat belive in me it works you look dum but it works
Paul is that the same hat you wore throughout your schooling?
However, I have been swooped at my workplace as have others and there was no solution.
