What can I do to keep both birds and Butterflies. I went out to
my patio to take a picture of a Monarch Butterfly and was just in time to see a Grakel snatch it for desert.

Would like to get rid of grakels as they keep other birds away.

Put a bird bath, bird feeder, and bird house(s) at one corner of the property and put butterfly plants at the opposite corner. Maybe put a big tree in between to block their view.
