Falcon

Product is of good quality but I’m not entirely convinced it works as a bird deterrent!

This purchase was primarily to stop pigeons from eating all of the grass seed on my lawn. Netting unfortunately failed as the pigeons just walked carefully across it. This model bird hasn’t completely stopped the pigeons landing on the grass but there’s definitely been a significant reduction. It does require filing with stones to stop it from blowing over and also positioning in different locations every couple of days. If not, the pigeons seem to figure out it’s a model. It’s also important to position it relatively high up - It didn’t seem to deter the pigeons when placed on the floor. Ultimately this has seemed to work as a short term solution while re-seeding the lawn so would recommend it for that purpose.

If I could give Nil Points i.e. no stars I would. From my personal experience I cannot recommend either the Falcon or the Seller. So far, four days of wasted time trying to obtain a replacement without success. The problem seems to stem from this extremely poor quality plastic bird (possibly very old stock due to flaking paint finish) being stuffed inside just a plastic bag and sent without any further protection from inevitable knocks and suchlike during transit i.e. it was not sent in a box, just a film plastic bag covering the bird, which was then in a plastic mailing bag. On removing the bird from its plastic bag white powdery paint fell off its chest. Just a gentle touch caused yet even more paint finish to flake off so the bird looks as if it has a hole in its chest (about the size of the plug hole on the base.) Sea Gulls are intelligent and will know it is not a real falcon thus the item is not fit for purpose.

I e looking ornaments but didn’t stop pigeons eating lawn seed

Realistic.

I write this review based on my decades of experiences as a consumer. I bought this primarily with the idea of using it as a model to then in turn make similar in clay. However, the bird is horrendous. The item is huge, the bird as big as a fully grown herring gull and it “sits, stands” on a “log” which takes up 1/3 of overall size. Very lightweight, it feels like it would break very easily. No fixing points or materials to fix in place. No instructions as to how to fix in place. Garish colour, poorly applied. It is awful OVERALL, don’t waste you money

Majestic and regal, like a bird waiting to launch.... Impressed with the size and quality. It has a hole in the bottom and a cap so can be filled with gravel etc in the base for free standing. So far, very impressed. Will see how it does in the weather.

Really does seem to scare the other birds, think my dog is a bit cautious around it too

في بادئ الامر كانت النتائج رائعة لكن بعد مدة لم يعد الطيور تخاف منه

Super achat, impeccable, , prix honnête, je le conseille ...

niet realistisch - geen effect op de vogels

Optisch gutes Produkt, Vögel und Tauben allerdings unbeeindruckt. Setzen sich sogar auf den Kopf des Plastikfalken. Daher als Taubenschreck nicht geeignet.

carino ma mi sa che piace anche ai piccioni, non spaventa nessuno, dovrebbe essere proposto come uccello decorativo perché non ha alcuna utilità
