When I shoot pigeons I normally wear a green baseball cap. But wife got me a trilby type hat with a wide brim for Christmas. I wore it today to keep her happy looks a bit daft but those pigeons just flew right up to me. I'll definitely wear it again - much better than a baseball cap!

[how safe are pigeons to eat?]

A lot of newly drilled/planted seed has a red coating - I asked the local farmer what this is apparently it is a mercury based substance designed to act as an insecticide. Presumably if a pigeons gorges on a large quantity of this their meat will also contain a lot of mercury. Has anyone got any info? Or comments on this?

 

Thanks,

Anyone from Wiltshire?

 

My current shooting buddy’s wife has just had a baby - so he won't be out for a while! I've got permmison over 400 acres (except pheasants). Does anyone from Wilts with their own land fancy a day out in exchange for a bit of shooting on your land?
