[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 1044921, member: 637"] I am not having having much of a problem with the little black flies that cover their backs and bellies. It is the horse flies. I believe there is a difference in the two insecticides that we are using. I thought surely the two fly repellants would have worked. I have not tried used motor oil. Inyati, I watch everything that is alive. I love to look at the little cow birds hanging around in the shade of the cows, waiting for a bug to be kicked up. They just stand there doing nothing, moving with the shade. Can they look above and see that is where all the food is hanging out? The black bird is one of this smartest birds, and the Cow Bird is included in this group. But I don't think they are actually related, unless they are the dumb cousins. It may be the color, and the fact that they migrate. Some would consider them laying their eggs in another's nest smart. I think they are like chickens that don't set. They just lay eggs in the nest, and don't think anything about it. [/QUOTE]
