Timrob's post about photographing a Sea Eagle's nest from above & his concern about not using a drone has prompted me to ask if anyone knows of any methods for deterring or eliminating drones that might buzz natural areas & interfere with bird & other wildlife.
I can quite envisage my relatively new neighbours buying a drone or two & use them to scare the daylights out of any wildlife that might pop up on their radar. So a little planning for such an eventuality could be handy.
I hesitate to be frivolous Woko, but a slingshot with an in-shell macadamia nut could be useful.

Brace yourselves. The skies will be thick with them one day.
Yes, they are being used in the UK to find holes in home security

No doubt our politicians have already let the drone genie out of the bottle. I've already informed one drone seller at a local shopping mall that if one of his drones damages me or mine then there'll be a big fat damages suite awaiting his arrival home from a day of droning.
Get yourself a powerful Cross-Bow Woko, nice and quiet and very accurate.
