Last week, Sunnyvale started sending a city worker out daily at dusk to Plaza del Sol with a $20 green laser.
SUNNYVALE — As the sun began to set Monday, about the only crow that could be spotted in Plaza del Sol was fake — an effigy of a dead one suspended upside down from a tree’s leafless branch.
would suddenly blot out the sky like a black cloud and swoop all over downtown, roosting in trees and littering city sidewalks and benches with their feathers and poop.This time, the crows that put Sunnyvale on the map were warily keeping their distance high in the sky or dispersing into small flocks to get a closer look.Cue in the $20 green laser and turn the clock back a week.
Although hundreds of crows still could be seen soaring high in the sky Monday evening, Taylor said it was the first time they stopped settling into Plaza del Sol’s trees.“We’ll see if we have to move the pilot program and expand it elsewhere in Sunnyvale. But for now, we’ll continue to focus on this location and hopefully we’ll continue to have the same success,” he said.
