They are on the move Joe, feeding time usually sees a couple appear

I had a day off today let the birds out from 9am till 5pm and watched the falcon s through binoculars diving from thousands of feet into open countryside to the south obviously targeting easy flown out targets trying to work North

It is a full time job feeding their young at present sadly our pigeons are very easy targets especially whilst in large batches then when single and flown out ,I am one down tonight

This is the reason for the escalation in the attacks Rab, its only going to get worse when these young ones improve on their hunting skills :(

unreal the amout of them around , in the wild they dont rear 4 and 5 babies but these do good scum bop lovers take all the wee runts oot the nests and place them in nests that didint harch all there egss or with ones all the same and shuffle them around so they rear full nests no runts die off so they are interfeering with nature like they as self interferers to , nothing above percie in the food chain , and w4kners helping them to over populate .

Re count , 5 hawked at weekend. :emoticon-0179-headbang: Noticed a yearling cock from Peterborough has a few tail feathers out. The pigeon sport is now a farce, its becoming a game of luck with so many predators in the sky .

I still only have 2/12, all these birds where at either Peterbourgh the week before or Newark two weeks earlier, these birds didn't see the north of England or some would have worked home, by the law of statistics I should have got more home and I know some guys did well, but it is a lottery out their now, the reallity of the weekends race is starting to set in and it wouldn't take much to throw in the towel.

Hardly any doos left and now the weather changes, :emoticon-0179-headbang: :emoticon-0179-headbang:

Limping along with the few thats left.
