I'm close friends with a local farmer who does strawberry farming on a small scale (like only sells at his little stand) and he's always had a problem with birds eating the seeds off of the strawberries he has. He runs a Upick and sells his own strawberries and he used to hire a guy to scare off birds but labor is super expensive now so like he just let the birds do their thing. But now it's a huge issue, and I'm pretty into engineering and thought it would be cool if I could provide him a solution. Started with a drone but quickly realized the flaws there. They currently are trying out reflective paper strips on poles to scare them away but the birds get used to it and it doesn't work well in no wind. Have you guys found any solutions to this or tried out anything to prevent birds from coming by? They always perch near power lines that are really close to the farm so that might be a limitation too. Sorry if this is the wrong subreddit. Thank you!

I got in line like hella early and got the pollen at worlds. It's very non-compliant and hard and def not for shooting. Simply due to the nature of it being hard it's prob super risky to release something that hard at 6000 potentially rpm from a shooter. Like it would actually hurt. There 3in diameter and have holes just like artifacts but have one irregular weird hole next to the made in China embossing (prob manufacture error). Def a pick and place game idk if we place vertically horizontal or both lmao but yea.idk super uninteresting. What do y'all think?

Can I go below the minimum waypoint threshold of 33ft? It's super safe and on my own land and completely flat. Idk if there is a setting or something, I am pretty new to this. Thank you!
