joe61 Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 hi jimmy sorry to hear about your missfortune you must be livid it happend to me a few times over the years its gut wrenching mate dont go looking for revenge take your anger out on the dustbin in the garden dont do anythong rash think about it the hawk is a hunter it didnt see it as your best bird only as food for itself and its young Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fair Play Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 What was the point of proposing a check on the raptors, pulling the plug and pushing it back to October - no point the raptors will not have young to feed so will not hunt to the same degree - there will be many photos during the spring/summers of the one shown by Jimmy I hope the whole episode goes off with a "bang" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billy wilson Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 sorry to hear about your loss jimmy,i know someone said it didnt know it was your best bird jeff bowers from loftus had two combine wins and a second when i went down last year the hawk had got his 1st combine and his second combine.its marvelous i know the haw doesnt know but at the same time it seems that they always get the best birds and not the also rans,it must be heart breaking to think how many thousand birds that they beat,then fall to a f---ing hawk billy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chrisss Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 i think we should all get our camersa clicking then send the whole lot to the rspb arent they supposed to protect all birds only the ones that give them good publicity which = money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy white Posted April 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 may i just say ,after this attack the hen went missing also, i had feared this had been also killed by hawk , but with address ring on it was reported 20 miles away [funnily enough by an old friend i hadnt seen in years ] so it just goes to prove the fright the other birds take [to put it mildly] may i take this oppertunity in thanking p,b members for there pm,s ,help and advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peckedhen Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Amazing how often they take one's best birds! :-/ :-/ Discussing this yesterday with a fancier who has recently lost two of his best birds to the Peregrine. His theory is that the best birds seem to fly on the outside of the flock, leading them...is this why they get taken in preference to the slower ones??? :-/ :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swilcox Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Jim leave the body there and add a little spice for flavour if you gey my drift, put a dustbin over it at nite so the fox cant have a takaway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy white Posted April 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Jim leave the body there and add a little spice for flavour if you gey my drift, put a dustbin over it at nite so the fox cant have a takaway have tried this stu but no luck, yet i know it will be back [the birds are as nervous as anything at the mo ,allthough ive done everything poss to quieten them,keep them tame [,as they were ] and settle them . i kept them in for a few days ,spent hours in the loft, handling them gently, feeding from my hand etc , but letting them out their as jumpy as anything and i feel i must be there at all times [theve got my nerves going too ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
