We have a robin that has taken a liking to my F150 truck. It attempts to peck its way into the truck through the windows. He is leaving birdy do-do all over the hood, bed cover, and review mirrors. Will buying a plastic owl work or is there a better method to drive him off? Shooting is not an option for obvious reasons (the truck windows). Please help!!!

Jim

Its his reflection causing all the problem. Robin sees his reflection thinks there's another male staking out his territory. I remember once a robin attacking the smooth round hubcaps on my father's Chevy. We didn't have a cat then, so it was either dinged up hubcaps or dead bird. Bird died.
Now if you only had a good coat of this WV dust on your truck, the Robin would move on....

If you go to a nursery or place that sells bird feeders and bird seed, you can usually find owl or hawk decals you could put on the window. Might do the trick.
