billt Posted February 18, 2016 Report Posted February 18, 2016 No wonder the RSPB love us, Percies numbers are increasing purely on the lives of racing pigeons, full stop.
W.D. Posted February 18, 2016 Report Posted February 18, 2016 53 of the poor birds, gone, and god knows how many more?
john cumming Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 i think tens of thousands of racing pigeons are taken by the peregrines and other raptors. makes poor reading. john
