I have a pair of buzzards living in an open barn on my land any ideas on ways of getting them to roost else where? |

I've done some research and it seems to be a Black Vulture and now they laid an egg! I guess they will be a resident for a while. I'll try getting the pair to move on later. They are really neat to watch they just scare my wife every time we try to go in the barn. |

I would put a chair in the barn behind a piece of plywood or a cloth to block their sight of you and get your wife a pair of binoculars. My hope is that once she sees the parents feeding the baby her maternal instincts will overcome her fears. Tony M |

That’s is a good idea but the barn doesn’t lend its self well to that. I will try to get some pictures of them though. They are real neat birds/ raptors? huge standing two foot high and have a funny walk jet lack feathers. The first time I saw one take off I didn’t think it would happen. Once they are in the air they soar as easily as any little songbird. I think I let them be until after the chick hatches and leave the nest but I do need to get then to move their roosting area. |

After the chick hatches and they leave you can block the entrance. If that is not possible, I have seen fishing line, strung in a cross pattern, eliminate big birds like herons and seagulls. Tony M |
