  18. I save sent photo's of my pigeons that have been torn to bits,some even with the sparrow hawk on top of the pigeon. for the last three years...not bothering anymore im dreading letting my youngsters out this year, one of my wifes work mates spends a fortune on wild bird foods (THE BEST MONEY CAN BUY) and has quite alot of feedind areas in his garden. My wife went on telling me that he had a tame robin that used to come and feed by hand,he had been coming for years alas he never turned up over the last few days. you guessed it he found what was left of it in the bottom of the garden. he was saying you feed the wild birds on the bird tables,and all you are doing is gathering them up for hawks to help themselves. so its not just us thats suffering we all pay our dues to the RPRA,and have done for years,what do they do for US...expletive removed* ALL. this country and its laws have gone tits up... NIGHTMARE
