Pigeons on my anemometer

Hello

Can anyone recommend a way to prevent pigeons perching on my anemometer? It seems to be their favourite place!

Fake owl or snake. Or make “bird spikes” with zip-ties.

Hi, 240 volts works well.

I guess they feel the top of poles are a safe place out of the way of predators such as cats. I get them perching on my anemometer occasionally but just leave them to it as I can’t reach them lol. It only affects wind direction, unless they poop in my rain collector which is underneath but that doesn’t seem to have happened yet.

You’re lucky it’s only pigeons, I get crows sitting on my anemometer! #-o

I had this guy land on mine one time. He knocked it all out of wack when he took off.

Mmmm… Pie
