Seen about 20 odd strikes from Percy and I've seen them miss the 20 odd times, Did see 1 time it carrying a white racer once but missed the strike But however just because they miss the birds I've seen smash into tree's/roofs/wires is a very high figure the damage from 1 strike successful on non successful is unreal! pigeons go into panic mode and just dive or spread any direction! that's why you get birds reported in the likes of Elgin from Edinburgh because they just panic and travel miles then find lost! There is only one reason behind this!!!
