As an update: I took a gamble on the Optex, and snagged me a 'dillo the
first night!  Worked like a charm - we're happy and about 15 vultures
are also happy and well-fed.  I am going to add 2 more sensors in other
well-dillo'd locations -- maybe this year we can plant some summer
flowers and have a hope that some will last the season.
