Sparrow Hawk

[Guest Davy Fleming]

Was going through Mount Ellen near Gartcosh this afternoon and seen a Sparrow Hawk dive down into the  loft compound which belongs to Gordon Geddes  so turned the car into the drive and seen the Hen sitting over a pigeon with it's wings spread right out  so jumped out the car and ran over to get it when the hawk just lifted and went. The  bird still didn't have a mark on it but was desperately trying to get under the loft so picked it up examined it and it was perfectly fine and put in a Sputnik. So Gordon if you read  this the bird was a cheq hen ring number 51400.

Well done Dave, saved the birds like,

Dougie, I was really sick that I didn't get the hawk because if it was that hungry I could have given it  a good feed myself and it would have been happy and content then. LOL

I was like that the other day at another club members mate, the hen was like a buzzard, some size, and came frome nowhere,  

 

Maybe Gordon will give it a good feed/home when it comes back to him,

Best watching them fly into Toughened glass - normal glass, not too big does them good too. Mind one has to be careful when picking them up that your foot doesn't stand on it's neck like.

[Guest Davy Fleming]

[frank-123]

once i told someone how to look after a percy and was threatend by a"pigeon fancier"

to some he is a hero to me he is ex rspca

 

and still a very active member on this forum

[Roland]

Oh yes, more active and Seeing' and looking out for his' 'lot' than 98% of the pigeon fancier will, and that's for sure. So I would have an eye over my shoulder if it got hurt ... But as I would never do anything untowards, then Of course I don't mind him looking out for their interests ... Only right and fair eh :-/ ;D ;D ;D
