Hasn't this guy heard of squirt guns? That used to be useful for dogs that chased and attacked new boys on bikes. Or maybe he needs to re-charge the battery on his cattle prod? (kidding!) Failing all that, how about a handful of scratch tossed out as he starts that part of his route? If you can't make a meal out of them, might as well feed them?

Why not do the same? Guess he doesn't mind 'sticking' them?

I had forgotten how persistent these birds can be. There are wild turkeys here and some new people thought it would be nice to feed them until they couldn't walk on their own deck for all the droppings! And because there were some nice pines right next to the deck, the turkeys moved right in roosting there (until next meal!). When the people stopped feeding them, one of the turkeys sat right on the deck railing and pecked at their window demanding that they come out and feed them! It took quite a while of not feeding them to get them to leave and go back to foraging for themselves. Probably should have gotten out the 22 and plugged a nicely fed one, but the folks were citidiots at heart and didn't last long here themselves.
