yes you can do both using a bit of common sense having your hawk out of sight of pigeons when thay are out and if hawk is one of the bigger breed have it in full view of any of the smaller bop,s that attack your birds and mine when birds are back in the loft.

can i do both race pigeons and fly my hawk

 

is this thread genuine or just to get a reaction

from the members with such a controvertial subject (hawks)

 

surely you know that just the mention of hawks/falcons etc

gets members riled up and just causes arguments

 

not having seen your posts on the other site

i would guess this could be why you were banned

ive got no idea if this is genuine or not but I dont understand why it should get people riled up as wild BOP takeing our pigeons is a totally different thing to falconry.

yes it is real yes wild hawks kill our birds yes criminal law breaker will be getting a hawk yes he also races pigeons . i can,t see a problem with doing both and with a bit of luck when his pigeons are safely in their loft and the hawk is out on its perch hopefully it might deter the smaller bops from his area making it a bit safer for his pigeons to be out

A SAD DAY FOR A MAN THAT LOVES all birds

Well there you go, at least you're still on the no.1 site :rolleyes:

thats right state the obvious :egyptian:

lads ive just edited the thread a bit in fairness what way other sites do there business and why someone was banned should stay on that site basics is not really the place to complain i have no idea of what was said or what wasn't said until there is rules broken i dont think anyone will have any problems on here

 

 

personally i feel it might be a chance to learn more about the birds and how they work etc and also you know never know a deterrent found

 

also these boys love there birds as much as we do there no doubt on that one

If I had my way I would bann hunting with hawks completely. The question I would like answered is:- what possible pleasure can there be in watching hawks killing things, that are not to be eaten, for the fun of it? Cruelty for cruelty sake surely can not be right. If I had my way I would make the people who follow the cruelty road fight as Gladiators in the way the Romans had it. Those who live by this code should know exactly how it feels to fight for there lives against seriously big odds.

be careful where you align yourself to own these antis who also say pigeons are raced for our pleasure and there is no doubt we are on there hit list

some would say sending pigeons long distances is cruel or sending pigeons only to be killed by a hawk is cruel also we send pigeons for our personal pleasure which they want stopped

 

and i bet were higher on there hit list than falconry as falconry is seen to be a elite sport

the main reason I fly hawk is for the seer pleasure of watching the bird fly and do what nature intended it to do. and as her catch not been eaten. any rabbits i have taken with my bird are either eaten by her or me. and in my opinion hunting with hawks/ falcons isnt any-more cruel than any other form of hunting and its a dam site less efficient and more time consuming as i can take for more rabbits and put far less work into getting my lurcher fit than a hawk

 

falconry for me is about watching the bird fly and the buzz i get when she dives for a rabbit (catch or no catch) is the same buzz i get when when a doo dives for the landing board

 

 

every body is entitled to there own opinion but before you go saying hunting with hawks is this or that please do a bit of reasearch. or better yet go out for a days hunting and see what its realy all about id be more than happy to take you out when i get another female this year
