    If we get a settling of snow, I’ll also be able to see the rat runs if they venture out too Mmmm, S410 with HW95 as back up methinks
    Ah, If you normally go there wearing camo gear, Paul. --- don't.

    Corvids love hens eggs, you only need to break one, stick the rest out whole.

    I could grab a couple from the chicken run. Just put them on the field do you reckon ? Or build a little ‘nest’ out of twigs on the ground with them in ?? Will they spot a broken egg in the grass ? (albeit not long grass at the mo)

    You could take a little stove with you, and make an omelette for them Paul!

    It'll keep your hands warm cooking it

I know crows are very intelligent and can apparently recognise a human for up to two years. I think my grey/white (read that as very sexy silvery Fox) hair and glasses are a giveaway ?? They really do know when I turn up !

    Easy peasy answer to that then, Pauly.

    Grab yourself a nice, white chef's outfit, complete with white hat. That will give you camouflage against the snow and confuse the crafty corvids!
