I have seen them doing this for a few years now.

 

It's a bit like sheep mustering in scubby undulating paddocks.

 

Get the crows in a mob and escort them a couple of miles away with their tongues hanging out only to return a couple of hours later when rested. Repeat until dark.

 

The orchard company say it saves them heaps, it's not what they eat but the damage to unripend nuts falling.

 

I did hear the approximate percentage some time ago and at near $10 kilo its worthwhile.

when bought my Drifter had a siren mounted for mustering sheep - might be a better option for chasing crows than that big blue GA thingo...
