So my solution was simple. I shot a few and they'd eventually come back. They're very social/communal animals. They couldn't spread the word that you don't go in that yard, well, because they were dead.
I shot one in the shoulder on a miss with my 32 fpe 22, and it rolled back, and looked at me, and bolted. I haven't seen one in my yard since. My trash hasn't been scattered either.
I have found some bird wings in the yard from a couple sparrows I left lie. Either the local male cat that has been roaming forever eats them, or the possums. I'd rather the possum eat those than my maters.
