Birds Stealing Your Berries?

Birds love to steal berries, especially when they are nice and ripe. To avoid this annoyance string some old CDs on a sturdy piece of twine and string it accross your garden. In my garden I also put up a plastic owl and had a scarecrow, since I had problems with the crows. This season it seems to have worked and my raspberries and strawberries were safe from the bird population.
