Novice Posted January 13, 2009 Report Posted January 13, 2009 It's unfortunate the Scottish Government who compiled the map can't find something more worthwhile to spend our taxes on.

Novice Posted January 13, 2009 Report Posted January 13, 2009 Agreed, noticed they couldn't be bothered to show where all the carcases of the pigeons were located. I think they may be working on flawed information and supposition. I wonder if they recovered carcases at all. If they did then did they actually prove that these birds had been poisoned, died of natural causes or picked up something. Lets be truthful here I any of us were to poison birds of prey would we leave the evidence lying around. I believe any poison used would be relatively quick acting and victim would be unlikely to fly away.----Reasoned Supposition on my behalf. I don't believe that landowners poison birds of prey----they shoot them.
Guest IB Posted January 13, 2009 Report Posted January 13, 2009 Saw it on the TV news last night. As far as I can remember, the deaths were 2 x red kite and 12 x buzzards. JW's favourite Mr Orr-Ewing was featured. There was no mention at all about pigeon fanciers, nor were we implicated in these deaths - the fingers were being pointed at landowners.
