I have been playing my Dawnsong CD and am noticing that I am attracting more hawks than I am PM's.

Perhaps I should just stop playing the Dawnsong CD? I have attracted some PM's that have come to investigate. No takers though. I am afraid the hawks may be scaring them off.

Maybe I am playing the tape for too long a period. I play it 2 hours in the a.m. and 2 hours in the p.m. I was thinking about just letting it play all day long. Is that a bad Idea? :???:
