Two cures to Blackbirds damaging gardens:
1> Prune the shrubs around their nest to help the Pied Currawongs find and
eat the babies. Doesn't stop the behaviour but reduces the number of Blackbirds.
2> Live near where the Australian Brush-turkeys are mound building. That
probably won't reduce the problem of Blackbirds. However it will give you a
similar problem on a much bigger scale, thereby taking your mind off the
Blackbirds.

Hi there birders,
One of the readers of my blog has posed a problem she is having with
Blackbirds flicking mulch all over the garden.
Here are her comments:
Helppppp!!We have a Huggggggge problem with Blackbirds in our garden,
flicking our mulch all over the place, it's driving us crazy, do you
know where we could get one of those electronic things to scare them
off, or anything else that would work in getting rid of them??
Does anyone have a solution?
I've written an article with some suggestions here:

I invite readers to add their solutions to those I've suggested.
Thank you.
