I just saw a "prowler owl" with a four-foot
wingspan to mount on a 1/2" pole to scare off bird pests (on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4314418476&sspagename=ADME%3AB%3ASS%3AMT%3A1)
I was wondering if anyone has used this or something like this, and of course,
how effective it is. [By the way, what's the opposite of
"decoy?"]
I'm trying to read Fred Brison's Pecan Culture,
but I'm having trouble getting through Chapter Two. It is laced with
vocabulary like: pericycle, acropetal, xylem, parenchyma, schlerenchyma,
medullary ray tissue, abscission, sessile flowers, bract, apical dominance,
perianth, peduncle, and I could go on. I am in bad need of some reference
work that will get me up to speed (hopefully illustrated!) and I'm soliciting
recommendations right now. Thank you all very much.
I'm a rank beginning pecan
orchardist.
