I pour corn directly on the ground for fear of getting a feeder stolen. I have some issue with raccoons eating it, but I seem to have a bigger issue with crows. Some of the pictures I have will show crows all over the main spot I poured the corn and deer between them and the camera, but not mixing. I have another day where the crows seem to have been there eating corn all day long. My question is whether there is something I can do to scare the crows away. I was thinking maybe one of those large plastic owls in a nearby tree.
I got three votes for shotgun so I am willing to give that a try. I could care less about the crows, but is there a quitter way. I would be afraid to blast a shotgun in my hunting area this late in the season. If not then they will get the 12 after doe days.

Once managed a pecan orchard in Jack County. Crows are evil. The only solution is something that goes BOOM BOOM.

Pellet gun works for Crows, and they are quiet, too.

Don't pile corn, hand throw out where you spread out thinner and over a large area. At least it'll slow crows some. A friend has a Gamo pellet rifle that's quite and is a crow killing machine while your in stand he claims.
