crow decoys and playing crow and hawk fight

[CharlesnBlue]

I want to put out some crow decoys
as well as play an occasional crow and hawk fight tape to run off hawks

has this been done ?

Crow decoys? Sure. Don't work.

Crow/hawk (audio) tape? I don't know that anyone has tried it, I would not expect it to work.

I have actual crows. and actual hawks. The crows are "helpful, but imperfect". Much better than crow decoys sitting on the ground, however. The only time my actual crows are effective is when they swarm the hawk in flight to protect "their" territory.
