place a large'ish bird table in view for them, close too tree line edge or thier main entry into the garden. now fill table with seed and nuts ( hazel/sweetchestnut fresh apple and fruit etc) sit back and enjoy them and thier gymnastics it will also bring other birds insects into the garden and works better for you as pest control the natural way

feed in summmer and winter and they shall leave alone your bulbs and feed on the freebies you leave them.

right now im watching two magpies and a robin feeding on my freshly dug vegpatch and the freebie's i left out for them
