Yes I have Ian
When were kept chooks in Ainslie we were troubled with a particular raven which carried off at least one egg each morning. As it called as it was approaching I was able to retrieve the eggs earlier than the raven. Each day over a period of 10 or so days the raven came a few minutes earlier than the day before. Eventually the bird came right up to the back window and glared angrily or so it appeared to me in at it human competitor. The raven did not return after that.
