I've often thought that an enterprising person could do well selling some kind of electronic, remote-operated device that could be attached to feeders, with an arm or something that would swing out when triggered (possibly with a loud noise) to scare off unwanted birds. Any inventors out there?
As for the grackles, I'd probably allow them some food in the spring before shooing them; but would just say no to starlings.

I squirt them with the hose. Same with the starlings. And the pigeons. And the neighborhood cats.--
