These temperature amplitudes which you get in America from one day to another are incredible. It never happens where I live and it generally does not happen much anywhere in Europe, the weather typically changes gradually over several days. I can never remember going from +15 degrees to -8 degrees Celsius in 2 days. If it took 2 weeks it would still be considered an extreme change. It is amazing that the plants can tolerate such fluctuations.
@@tomaszskodowski1465 I know. It’s crazy. I’m sure it’s not easy on any of the plants or animals. And these cold temperatures are usually what we get in January and February
My wife is from England but has lived with me in NJ for decades. We still get calls from overseas generally in February and August, checking on us because of weather from hell. They still don't believe we find it normal.
I live off the coast of Lake Erie and we use party lasers to keep the seagulls and geese away from the docks. Works real well aT night to drive them away. During the day I have heard of marinas using a loud popping machine using propane to keep birds away. Finally some people put streamers and reflective pin wheels out on their boats to keep them away. I have seen a mix of success with all those.
Looks like a Downey woodpecker to me. Frustrating for sure. Shiny glittery things scare them. Try some Christmas tinsel wrapped around them. I have used old cd discs hanging from a string as well. They spin and reflect sunlight at them.
I agree with the other comments. Repair with spray foam - the type for "big gaps." If you've never used it, it's very messy and ends up expanding more than you'd think. Use deterrents for the birds. On my property, birds like to sit on my fake owls. I would try tinsel and suspended cds - preferably heavy metal music discs. That'll get em. Or cd-roms... I wonder if there's a liquid concentrated animal deterrent you can spray like Deer B Gone.

Wow that is a first for me I've been fortunate to not have any of those problems, 🤔all the best 🙏♥️🌴🌴🌴🌹🌴Jose's Tropical Garden 🌴
@@JoseRamos-jn6ij I’m going to send the bird to New Jersey! 😀. Stay warm tonight!!!
To fill holes you could also use some spray foam/gap filler and then trim off excess later. But I think visual deterents would work also.
@@mikecothran7033 I’m definitely going to fill it in when it warms up, but I think the bird will just make another hole somewhere. Such an odd battle
Tim, can you plz show us your other rescue birds as well?
@@zwicknagel I will put her in the next video. She is so sweet and amazing

@ so true and funny. And it’s going to be almost 60 F on Tuesday and then back to winter after that

@@brownfamilygarage5524 thank you. I might be trying all of these if it keeps attacking and destroying these structures. I appreciate your advice
I feel your pain Tim. After painstakingly replacing my allotment grow space the bloody seagulls pecked holes in it for fun. Nightmare
@@vincenzecalzone8666 it’s crazy. And I love birds… but not this one. I have the reflective tape up
First I've heard of that!
@@tntropics I’ve never had this happen!
I bought some pin wheels on Amazon that spin in the wind , I know birds don’t like the flashy movement
@@cjbarrett1572 I might try that

@@Rustytoolgardener thank you for the identification and the advice. I’m going to be busy this weekend. Such a crazy thing to deal with
Woodpeckers hate peppermint oil ❤
Thank you. I may try that; I have the reflecting tape up at the moment and it seems to be working for now
Reflectors might work.
@@dnvpaul I’m going to try it. Seems like it’s always something! 😀😀😀

@@midwestbananafarms8790 thank you for watching and commenting. I’ve got some work to do this weekend! 😀 I’ve never had this problem before
Same thing is happening to my boxes
@@cjbarrett1572 it’s so frustrating. I’ve never had this happen before. And of course right when it’s getting the coldest
