Ian McKay Posted July 4, 2017 Report Posted July 4, 2017 Always had Buzzards in my area and did not think they bothered with pigeons until yesterday at 7.30 let my youngsters out and within 30sec it had nailed one stone dead by the time I knew what was going on. It was one of my oldest youngsters so not a baby So more problems to be solved so look out I am on the war path !!! Lasers and rockets to the ready :drinking-coffee-200:

philg50 Posted July 4, 2017 Report Posted July 4, 2017 Well the thing is IMO ,the buzzards are getting more plentyfull and the more of them there are the less carrion at the road sides there will be for feed so it does not surprise me.

Ian McKay Posted July 4, 2017 Author Report Posted July 4, 2017 often wondered if flying a drone would frighten them I had a friend from Sweden here last year he is a drone head and wanted to show me them working all set up in the front of the house stood back looking at it and it malfunctioned and went up like a rocket to about 1000ft before he got control, learned a lesson stay away at the launch cause if that had hit me I would still be in hospital But once he controlled it it was amazing had a camera on it and you wore special glasses to view the camera brilliant :emoticon-0136-giggle:

Phil had them here for 23 yrs never ever bothered the birds that's why I got such a surprise Think I might invest in a pair of eagle owls to fly free :emoticon-0136-giggle:

Illegally granted.Sad for your loss.
