Weighted Rotatable Electronic Owl
An electronic owl for scaring away pigeons and other unwanted wildlife from homes or other buildings. The electronic owl includes a housing having a body and a rotating head attached thereto. The body of the rotating electronic owl is attached to a weighted base which allows a user to add or subtract the amount and type of material put into the base. The housing includes a variety of motion sensors therein configured to detect birds or other unwanted animals. The electronic owl utilizes motion, lights, and sound to scare away pest animals from the designated area.

DETECTION OF ANIMAL INTRUSIONS AND CONTROL OF A REPELLENT MECHANISM FOR DETECTED ANIMAL INTRUSIONS
An electronic apparatus and a method are provided for detection of animal intrusions and control of a repellent mechanism to prevent such intrusions. The electronic apparatus controls an image-capture device to acquire an image of a house yard and selects a set of zones in the acquired image based on a user-specified setting. The electronic apparatus detects an animal in the acquired image and controls the repellent mechanism based on a determination that the detected animal is in a zone which is among the selected set of zones, to target the detected animal.

Animal repelling device
An animal repelling device may include a first mounting bracket and a second mounting bracket, each of which includes an upper section and a lower section. The upper section may include a vertical tab, a notch formed in the vertical tab, and ribs coupled to opposing sides of the vertical tab. The lower section may include a foot coupled to a sidewall, the sidewall comprising a curved inner surface configured to mateably couple with a fence. A roller may be disposed between, be rotatably coupled to, and extend axially between, the first mounting bracket and the second mounting bracket, the roller comprising an aligner that biases the roller back to an initial at rest position. An attachment clip may be releasably coupled to the notch of the vertical tab.

Animal Deterrent Assembly
An animal deterrent assembly includes a housing that is positionable adjacent an area intended to be free of animals. A balloon is coupled to the housing and the balloon is inflatable present a visual deterrent for an animal. A blower is positioned within the housing to inflate the balloon. A plurality of speakers is each coupled to the housing to present an audible deterrent for the animal. A motion sensor is coupled to the housing and each of the blower and the speakers is turned on when the motion sensor senses motion of the animal. A transceiver is coupled to the housing to communicate an alert to thereby alerting a user that the animal has approached the area.
