Buzzards

[catchthepigeon]

Yes they have no choice but to circle it when liberted there trying to find there bearings i have been searching since lastnight trying to get footage of pigeons mobbing bop but cant seem to find any i did find one where wild pigeons had taken over a kestrels nest box and the kestrels wouldnt go in to the box everytime it put its head in it got a slap with the pigeons wing

there a buzzard that flys around most mornings when i am seeing to my birds never had no problems and ive had my birds fly towards it buzzard dont seem bothered more worried about the local pergrines,hen sparrow hawks and goshawks around my way

[catchthepigeon]

The pigeons know buzzards will do them no harm after flying around with them present for so long and not being attacked although a buzzard having a hard winter will take the odd bird but they prefer carrion

got one thats sites on telegraph pole behind loft .The pigeons dont bother about it and it never looks at them.

 

They dont even get jumpy when it flutters over loft to land on the pole.

 

They seem to know,  if it was the sparrowhawk it would be different they would be off like rockets

I dont believe pigeons mob bop WHATS THE FIRST THING PIGEONS DO WHEN THEY see a bop there up and off there not up and attacking the bop maybe it does happen but iv never seen it happen in 30 years

 

When the peregrine is here my pigeons also fly up to it and cirlce round about it bumping into it,  Fact,   they no it dont get them when there right beside it.

I have seen mine cirle round it for haf an hour at a time untill it wanders of ;)

i think they must of got blown of course in the prevailing west wind as there is no birds of prey in the east . they certainly looked like west coasters rough and ready   ;D ;D ;D ;D

Sorry if I offended you in any way, if we all kept opinions to ourselves then the site would shut post haste. I just find it hard to believe :-/

my birds do it all the time if they see the bop high up they go up close to it it then cant gain speed to strike and the pigeons seem to know that
