OLDYELLOW Posted November 14, 2008 Report Posted November 14, 2008 and there just the tip of the iceberg maybe last ring of a failed yb i hope
DOVEScot Posted November 14, 2008 Report Posted November 14, 2008 If you multiply the amount of pairs of peregrines by the 36 rings found, that one heck of a birds 1200 pairs according to this estimate and two thirds in Scotland http://www.wildlifeextra.com/go/news/falls_of_clyde-peregrines.html
blaz Posted November 14, 2008 Report Posted November 14, 2008 shoot them if any of the rings belong to H R H THE QUEEN THEY SHOOTING WOULD BE NO PROBLEM SIR DAVID ATTENBOROUGH SHOOT A PAIR AFEW YEARS AGO BECAUSE HE FOUND ALOT OF RACE RINGINGS NEAR NEST
PigeonTracker Posted November 14, 2008 Report Posted November 14, 2008 Going to send Gail from the WHU a mail to let her know as most of them are on her list, perhaps she'll be able to pass on the numbers to the owners. Thanks for the post Strapper.
REDROCKET Posted November 14, 2008 Report Posted November 14, 2008 i find this amazing and thats only one nest site it goes to show what our birds must go through every race day and the longer the race the more times it must happen.( i'de put a sad face on the end of this but dont no how yet)
