Greetings, I recently started a new raised bed in the yard out of old galvanized metal roof panels I had laying around as I ran out of room in the greenhouse’s. Planted some leafy greens such as Vates Blue Scotch Kale and Black Simpson lettuce. Seedlings just started to come out and I was impressed with how quickly the Cardinals came out to mow them all down. I put a quick screen over it for now to give the seedlings a chance, but man, wasn’t expecting that so quick. Anybody else run into that situation as well? Do they eventually let up once the plants mature a bit? Thanks for reading and Cheers!

Thanks for the comment! Cardinals are the only ones that i have caught, we have plenty of finches and sparrows that frolic around, but I haven't caught any of them in the bed or greenhouse's before grabbing seedlings. The screen seems to be holding up so far and working... 😀
