It's "pigeon". There is no "d". Of course that could be a time frame that relates to pigs, kinda like "dog years".

I would probably sit outside with a pellet gun and take out the pigeons when they land on the feeder. If I was up for a real challenge, I'd stand off about 50 yards and use a 22 rifle. Sometimes, brute force is the best way to approach a problem (and sometimes, it's more fun). Of course, you could always put the feeder inside a wire mesh cage with access holes large enough for small birds but too small for pigeons...

"...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001Hahaha, Yeah I asked an extirimanitor what the best way was after researching all the popular methods: Holographic Mylar, Fake owls, Baloons with eyes on them, recordings of birds in distress, dead pegion decoys (supose to work for Geese). He told me the best way was a .22 cal or pellet gun. I really didn't want to see my Father being hauled off by the men in white coats...

Hmm, might work. But supose you have larger song brids that feed as well. How would they get the food?
The larger birds have to go on a diet. No one likes a fat bird around here.

I came up with a soltion to an age old problem:
Q: How can you keep pigions from stealing all the seed?
Requirements:
a. The pegions can't feed at the feeder.
b. The pegions can't feed from the ground below the feeder, where feed is placed and
little birds knock the feed to the ground.
c. The little birds can still feed with no problems.This would be a good interviewing question to test ones ability to solve design and engineering problems. I will post the solution in a few hours, or if someone comes up the same or equaly plausable solution. Hint: I came up with the solution because my Father started going nutz and throwing rocks at the pegions. ~TheArch :-D
put feeder on island in middle of pool with sharks with freekin' lasers coded to auto fire at pigeon shaped/sized birds ..ha, you call this a challenge...
Opium is my business. The bridge mean more traffic. More traffic mean more money. More money mean more power. Speed is important in business. Time is money. You said opium was money. Money is Money. Well then, what is time again? icalburner.net

I have seen that on a sign in a pub, "No Fat Birds".

Buy a Time Machine Go back 50-100 thousand years and through DNA manipulation and selective breeding, stop the pigeons from evolving. Come Back to the Present. Feed Birds. Wanna Buy a time machine? I have one here, I only bought it next week.
