    I finally pried the bottom off mine today. I experimented with it some, but ended up just cutting one of the speaker wires so it won't make any sound.
    It's too bad, because it will just hoot, but the next time it's triggered it plays that LOUD song.
    I'll have to PM Otaku. He might have some ideas.

    Saw these today, looked great until I heard them, haha. Seriously, why can't they just make it hoot? Do they really have to make it play horrible music, lol.

    I'd just cut the wire and try to rig up an mp3 player to it with realistic owl noises.

    The owl at the Lowes I went to sung the song in Spanish.
    What if my pigeons are not bi-lingual?

    I guess it really IS Speedy Gonzales singing the song. LOL
    OK, let's see-it's a song from an Australian band. Then dubbed in Spanish.
    What a country!!!

    It sings "Who Can It Be Now?" ---The '80's Men at Work song.
    Or should I say "Hoo Can It Be Now?"
    And sung by Speedy Gonzales!!

    I liked it until i heard that song =[ way to ruin a good looking prop. They are only 5$? that is a good deal though. Why would they play that song? How does it have anything to do with owls?

    OMG, that's horrible. What a waste of a good prop. There's gotta be a way to hack that thing.
