I finally found the best way to thin out the squirrels my yard.

Nice!  We have a few raptors in the neighborhood.  Wish I could encourage them to be more active around my yard.  I've got to figure something out before any fruit starts forming.

I have these in my yard as well.  I even had a breeding pair that nested at the top of one of my large ficus trees for a number of years in a row.  Unfortunately, they seem to much prefer birds (especially doves), as well as mice, small rats, lizards and snakes to squirrels.  I've seen them chase squirrels but have never seen a confirmed kill. They sure are beautiful though.

I had a mocking bird nest in a Lemon meringue for a few years, not one fruit was attacked by a squirrel and the birds didn't mind my nosiness when I was investigating the yard.
