R we used to have an electric wire on the ledges at work. if it's right on
R the peak of your roof, then something that interferes with their landing
R would work. a coiled wire or something, perhaps. I've seen them sitting
R right on top of the fake owl downtown. Maybe you have to move the owl
R periodically for that to work....

R You gotcha be hi-tech with the pidgeons these days. They are getting
R smarter. The owl needs to rotate, hop around, make owl hoots, and
R have lightup eyes. You need to connect the owl to one motor to make
R it rotate, and a solenoid to make it hop. Then connect a speaker and
R get an owl hooter tape or cd and play the sounds thru the speaker.
R Finally, put LED bulbs behind the eyes to make them glow, and be sure
R to use a random dimming circuit to control the eye brightness.
R You might also consider flapping wings, which coild be achieved using
R a pidgeon sensing device and a network of gears attached to another
R motor. I have a feeling you are not taking these pidgeons seriously
R enough. You MUST outsmart them.

Sounds like you're describing a Furby! g
