I have had luck keeping the birds away from my muscadines using flash
tap purchased from Orchard Valley Supply. http://orchardvalleysupply.com/about/
I stretch the tape lengthwise about two or three feet above the
vines. Twisting it a couple of times keeps it moving in the slightest
breeze. I don't put it up until the grapes start to ripen and take it down
as soon as it is no longer needed. I saw this tape being used in vineyards
in Europe several years ago.
Raccoons and Opossums are another matter. For them I use a fence
charger strung on the grapevine posts. This works well for me. I
have had the old battery operated charger for at least 15
years.
