Let the race team out when i got home and they took to the sky's and were going really well,wife was cleaning the corridor and changing the water every few minutes they would reappear then away again came out of the loft for a look few minutes later then nothing spotted pair of peregrines hunting just to the north of me but still no birds,then wife shouted here they come from the south high and dropped like stones 3 missing then spotted a bird trying to return from the north but immediately get targeted by one of the falcons and they both disappeared from view ,daughter shouted what's that noise as we looked south to be met by 2 adult and 1 young peregrine coming from the south it was like watching the red arrows as they targeted anything that moved,1 hour later before a red and blue both cocks appeared 1 minute apart the red missing some secondaries then half an hour later the one that was targeted from the north with damage to its wing and front from hitting something while escaping ,I no things have not been good here for years but it is now at saturation level nothing in the sky's bar crows peregrines and my doos,normally when the birds have been flying really low around the town they have been left alone but over the past few weeeks the falcons have now started a very worrying trend :emoticon-0156-rain:

Sit back and accept it Mick, they want fed so feed the poor things with your pigeons.All yer doos arent good yins, give them some old timers that are of no use to you, or ybs that have slipped the ring in the nest.Poor peregrines need feeding, so help them out.Also helps save yer good yins ;)

Looking Forward to September when me and my wee dug take up my new hobby of studying rock formations long long winter.

ITS SICKENING TO WATCH

Posted

I am totaly disgusted at the reply from you DELBOY re the Peregrine falcon problem. I have read a number of your posts and you seem to have a lot to say for yourself over most subjects and the majority of it is inconsiderate, un-thought out rubbish! Are you even a pigeon fancier at all to come away with that sort of advice? Why dont you put yourself in the lions cage at the zoo and see how you like being eaten alive!! With the kind of heartless advice you have just given I would guess that you are a falconer also? If not then you should give yourself a shake mate as you obviously dont have a heart! You would be prepared to give the falcons all your old timers that are no use to you now would you? What a way to treat one of your own birds! It must have served you well for it to have reached old age and after that you are prepared to watch it get eaten alive? Even young that have slipped the ring in the nest.........what have they done to deserve a fate like that? Nothing!!!!

 

All creatures have a right to live, I dont dispute that, regardless of the diet they have and whether pigeons happen to be part of that diet or not. Thats one thing......but you would deliberately give it birds of your own that just happen to be of NO USE to you now? Are you trying to be some big shot in the pigeon world who is ruthless and cares about nothing except winners? Thats how you are making yourself out mate........you may be a pigeon keeper but to me you are just another heartless person who keeps pigeons and cares nothing else for a birds well being.YOU ARE NOT A PIGEON FANCIER!!!

 

I joined pigeon basics to read constructive comments not a lot of cr*p that you think everyone else wants to read. Do you think that all of the non fanciers who report birds through PB dont look through other threads to see if they are advertising a found bird in the proper place or to give them a little insight into the world of pigeon racing? You wonder how our sport gets a bad name and why some non fanciers think the way they do about our sport? I will tell you why mate, it is because of idiots like you thats why!!!

 

And if you had any brains that giving old timers to the falcons would save your good birds then you are sadly mistaken! All you are doing is encouraging them to come back for an easy meal!!

 

You may not like what I have to say but I am easy mate. Whether you like me or not for it I dont really care. You are not the kind of person I would want to know anyway..............and you call youself a pigeon fancier?? Get a life mate!!!!

Dont just look at the post ,read the *expletive removed* thing you moron, *expletive removed* idiot.You havent a clue

That was the advice given by the RSPB,have a shed of less valued birds that you can let out before you're prize birds.

 

Yes mate I know, I wonder why, all predators thrive when the food chain is at a peak, That's why I say we have played right into their hands, We are the ones that are responsible for the large increase in Percy, more Percy more birds, more Percy birds, We really must think about cutting down the food supply

Being absolutely serious it becomes more obvious to me each year that we should not be racing youngsters during the month of August.

We need to start young bird racing earlier and also shorthen the season by having mid week races. This may mean having youngbird races during the National season but it needs to be done.

Think about this carefully. We supply prime food in abundance exactly when required.

If there are no racers available Percy will decimate the song bird population forcing a rethink by the RSPB.

One of the best things that could be done would be for nobody to let a single bird out for a whole year,that would surely have an impact on the hawk situation but I know that would never happen

Common sense , either that or have no racing at all for one year, everyone keeping all their racing pigeons indoors.expletive remove sorry Tammy, never read your post lol, great minds think alike lol

Think u r removing too many posts for no good reason some of the posts were true and nothing wrong with them !!!!

 

 

 

there is very few posts removed off this forum fact i removed a handful that could put some people in trouble as raids have been taken place all over the uk recently that a fact wildlife officers have there eyes or other people looking in on these forums yes they do another fact i was just protecting members over what was said in the heat of the moment there was also members commenting that these posts should not be on the forum so i was not the only one of the same opinion the same posts would be moved off any forum that wants to protect there members

 

if you think any of the posts should be put back on send me a pm i have no problem with that at all
