It just seemed that several of the feathers in a row on each wing had similar notches

12 gauge sounds good (with ear protection), especially as I heard a wildlife guy on the radio all these Cockatoos are not native to the area but escaped pets
. The tree is starting to get a bit of hight to it so I don't relish trying to mesh it. I was looking for a low cost and (hopefully) effective deterrent. I intend to place at least an A3 sized raptor image in view of the tree. Alex, would you have a aggressive looking image of an eagle or kind I might try for this purpose?
