Coincidence Or Not ?

[greenlands]

Been on the Notts BOP webcam several times today and took notice that red pigeons are getting taken,that's the third today ?? think of it what you like but considering the amount of reds compared to blues and chequers is there a link ?

Just like a box of chocolates they just rip the wrappers off I do think anything with amass of white / pied tend to go first . Around loft I've lost 2 hens before season started these were a dark and a Chequer , racing so far only lost two a red and a blue , and one injured , birds hit other objects and aren't all bop related I think some race sites simply aren't suitable but are used due to been more cost effective plus clashing especially when bad weather and too many smaller concerns going up the road to similar race points . So although I do acknowledge we have a big problem with bops the percy's been the worse in Scotland and Wales I think we need to look at the whole picture .

Us missed the rest of Britian.

Most habit on coast is normal they should be there it's the rest of the falsely man made sites that are the biggest problem , yes we have some on the castle and some further up at Whitby as well maybe a few little rocky out crops I've missed as well lol

I can't hold onto reds or meallies here. Loft just full of blues and cheq with a few white flights.
