I am so sick of this bird!
A pin tailed whydah has taken over my back yard. This nasty little thing chases away every bird that comes in. I used to have two empty bird feeders every night, but now I refill only every second day. I want him gone! Does anyone know of any non-lethal ways to get this bird out of here?

Catch it and keep it as a pet.
I had one for a time and yes, they can be extremely aggressive. Shame, as they are so pretty.

Look into a sparrow trap possibly, there are tutorials to make them online. They are living loose, but they're escaped from the pet trade.

Re: I am so sick of this bird!
As this species has escaped from pet trade, you could inform a local bird organisation if they are interested in having this bird catched. Over here birds that have escaped and settled successfully aren't allowed as pets any more - don't know how the laws are where you live. Trapping this bird would make sense, anyway.
