Living currently in Japan in somewhat rural area, lots of fruit growing around. I am not sure why but there are A LOT of hawks and other birds of prey around. I am guessing they are doing decent job controlling bird population. Other then that there are scarecrows that mimic bop sort of like kites. Also some people rig ventilators all around trees, spinning blades kill birds perhaps?

Laser sounds really nice but they will need up the power to blind birds or they will just learn to ignore it.

I am also really hoping for razor blade tipped ramming drones :)

In my high-rise neighborhood we have peregrine falcons. That's pretty much the same thing.
