Sorry for going off topic, but did your decoys actually work? Mine didn't.

A definite reduction in in bird crap in conjunction with cd's on a old headphone cable the owls are now beefed up with more sand and hurricane tested on the downside not to astatically pleasing.

Rained here from around 0700 to 1300 here in Photharam with quite heavy spells. The cool weather yesterday, last night and this morning has been very welcome.

Didn't wreak any havoc in my part of BKK, but certainly ushered in some welcomed unseasonably cool weather! Some areas probably set all-time record low temps for April. Was close here in BKK...maybe tied...but haven't yet heard the official temp recorded. 22 C in my location was a tie, but heard 21 C and 20 C reported.
