all this wat u r talking bout as far as the fisheries in scotland is well
documented in our country am listening 2 posts of people who not so long ago
had dropped themselves in the crap bout wat they dun with there birds n the
way they conducted themselves in trying 2 get the upperhand with ybs n then
all of a sudden theyre all agreeing with u on this subject now wat gets me a
think in the fi
hi all, i have been reading these mails about the hawk attacks surveys ect
and i would just like to say when i first put the proposal into the n,t,u.
at the a,g,m. 2008 it wasnot to try for a cull of the perigines as anyone
knows this would never happen it was to show excactly the amount of falcons
that every area now has, at the time it was being said that there was known
to be two breeding pairs in west midlands by the people concerned but has we
know being pigeon fanciers who now suffer endless attacks this is not true ,
I know that 1 or 2 or even a few people will be able to sort the falcon
problem out, it will take all of us or most of us to even get the ball
rolling. To get the ball rolling is, i would have thought, what every
tippler flyer wants.
the rpra has set up scheme for fanciers to report any hawk attacks and they
want pigeon fanciers to report any attack; damage-fatal/injured/escaped
whether the attack was seen with a view of compiling a program to present to
the appropiate authorities at the end of the year and try to do something
about the problems we are all having in the pigeon fancy I think it would be
in our own interest
the reason i put the pics on is so all the different unions round the world
can log these sort of things as what we originally tried 2 agree on but as
no 1 else is posting anything else that makes me look as tho am trying 2 be
some sort ov marter which i am not i transfer my stuff on2 a pen so i can
keep it till the end ov the season but every1 else just seems 2 want 2
squabble bout whos cat
think you are right Dave in not making your area its happy hunting ground,
if it makes a kill it will keep coming back, especially if it has young, i
dont have an aviary for this reason, if a hawk flies over at 10,000 feet and
a bird moves in your aviary he will see it, dont advertise your birds
presence. Anyone else got any ideas? i am only a novice and not lost any yet
but can understand peoples frustration
I believe that is the right thing to do in Europe if you want your birds
survive in February, but I am sure he will be hungry in march, April, May
and.. later on when he gets babies then he will not be satisfied with one
pigeon a day but two or sometimes tree a day. So for every day you fly you
can count on at least one loss. At least that is how it is in Hamburg.
Hi Davey, noticed that trend down here also. Been getting loads ov other
damaged birds down here. A lot more than normal years. So theirs either more
hawks or a lousy hunter thats doing a lot ov damage, but a doubt that!!!
Just more BOPs after more prey. As they prob been starving for months now,
we numins have'nt been putting our birds out!!!!!!
Hello Tippler flyers Just read this in my cage and aviary mag, Rise in BOP

BUZZARDS 4 RED KITES 2 GOLDEN EAGLES 1 TAWNY OWL AND 1 SEA EAGLE All poised
with an ILLEGAL PESTICIDE CARBOFURAN AN ILLEGAL PESTICIDE DANGEROUS TO
HUMANS DOGS AND CATS.THIS represents just a fraction of the true scale of
this illegal activity.. {WOT NO FALCONS} kind regards barney
