Was at a club meeting today when my mate told me he had read a report in a gamekeepers magazine stating that four pairs of peregrine falcons were to be released in the Moffat area and be watched to see if they are successful in setting up new nest sites after the success of three pairs last year that explains why last year one evening when i was exercising the young birds they were attacked by four peregrines and here was me thinking there were no more sites with the near on twenty pairs at present Cant see pigeon racing surviving at this rate having spoken to a friend from the ne who stated he had 3 pairs in close proximity where previously there were none ,I wonder what goal the rspb are trying to achieve ???

Yeah we have 4-6 nest sites in Edinburgh and surrounding area! And there meant to have 20-30 mile of territory! Pigeon racing cant survive this

Yes you are right Michael,I cannot see pigeon racing surviving in this area.The RSPB are wealthy and extremely influential.Tourists are actively encouraged to come here to view the magnificent peregrine falcons in action.

 

Thems the facts folks.
