Cheers I will pass on your wishes to him

I am looking to get as much info as I can and then hopefully see what deals are on offer at Blackpool

Great news billy got the all clear today for the cancer and his pigeon lung is stable and there is a chance it may improve, he has also been cut down on his insulin injections by almost half. I have almost finnished his house and he hopes to move in this w/e :)

Is there any that have their own back up power pack in the event of a power cut :-/

I thought the whole idea of a SUNhouse was it required SOLAR light ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

No problem at all if you are open about it, I am sure I could put a few cheap birds your way at times from my mates that breed and would prefer not to cull if someone else could get a good start from them :-/

I wonder if anyone has tried a solar charger like the ones you get for caravans on second thoughtd we may be better rigging up a water turbine or wind turbine :-/

Aye as soonas Phil gets oot his wee learner car, stops running round the country getting birds and looking at pups and gets the site sorted ;D ;D ;D

That's ok just blame me if you do, everybody else does ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

There seems like there is a lot of discussion on other sites and some well in the EEO's favour :) http://darrennaish.blogspot.com/2006/06/british-eagle-owls-update.html

Looks like there are more eagle owls in the UK than I thought there was http://www.norfolkfalconry.co.uk/owlforum/owl-species-facts-european-eagle-owl-bubo-bubo-t21.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurasian_Eagle_Owl#Recent_UK_breeding http://www.birdguides.com/species/species.asp?sp=073064# http://www.birdguides.com/webzine/article.asp?a=606 http://forums.chroniclelive.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=10464&start=30

So how do members like me that are in the proccess of setting up for ets learn what system is best to buy, also I can't see anything wrong with a company having an input and a debate about the pros and cons of certain ones :-/

Why was this post locked, can't see any reason why myself http://forum.pigeonbasics.com/m-1218927851/

Found this, it may have been posted before http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/north_yorkshire/4436122.stm

Kerry you will find that there are members on here the same as a lot of sites that are open to debate and there are some with closed minds that just will not let any other opinion in. Personally I think there are some in the RSPB that are so closed in their mindset to introducing and protecting some raptors that they will take no heed of others point of view, just the same as in the pigeon world, as soon as some members lose a bird they blame the hawks, when although they maybe right there are other factors, I have flown Harris hawks, red tail kites and various owls which all have a part to play in nature But there are plain and simple truths that all sides must take on board 1. The RSPB do not protect all birds they select certain birds to fund breeding and release programmes, any other bird outside their interests are ignored or even destroyed to protect their investments yet the same avenues are not open to anyone else 2, The more raptors we have the more food they will need and as their staple diet is other birds then it goes without saying :-/ 3, There are numerous documented and photographic evidence that these raptors take racing pigeons both good and bad not only from returning from a race but from the tops of our lofts or while out flying for the day yet we are not allowed to protect our interests 3, Pigeon racing is on the decline for various reasons including social and economic and also the raptor problem so these birds of prey will have even less to feed on so the other bird populations will suffer 4, Not only pigeons are taken but there is also evidence that aviary birds are attacked as well including finches, budgies and canaries having their heads ripped off by sparrow hawks through the wire caging 5, Raptors are only behaving naturally they are killing and feeding to survive it is man that create the imbalance in the world by over protecting certain species thus creating the imbalance, if the urban jungle and changes in our environment are changing then why breed and protect more raptors that the country cannot sustain :-/

Me and Gangster at Blackpool 2008 8)

Never mind bull sh###ng evey one Gangster come out the closet and address your issues or at least return me dress so I can either get oot at nights or pass it on to Tammy who is showing a bit of interest in it lately

Just leave plenty of fresh clean water, if they are fit and healthy they will be fine for 2-3 days

Yes I know it is illegal, that is why we must campaign for a proper release programme throughout the country so they can survive. Do you think that it is only perigrines, sparrow hawks, sea eagle, redtail kites and goss hawks etc should have proper release programme throughout the country so they can survive and return to sustainable numbers :-/

Never mind the crap, get it back to me or else ;)

Cheers

Come on Ganster is trying to deny that one, I just wish he would return mine so I could get out on the town again :'( :'( :'(

How long does a charge last :-/
