cloudwalker Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 All finished now. Rape waist high so Woodies not really doing any damage to crop. Also all paired up now and nesting. I suggest you put your gun away until the harvest when the Pigeon start to bunch again and not quite so many birds nesting. CW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloudwalker Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 out of curiosity when will that be roughly its my first year Dependent on the weather. If we have a dry summer it should be around the end of July/ beginning of August. If it's wet it will obviously be later. CW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurrasicway Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 There are still opportunities on flight lines. If you can find a good one and sit under it for an hour or two at the end of the day. When I do this I can still get a couple and it keeps the eye in and exercises the dog... However, you certainly are not going to get a red letter day, or get rich... :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres always opportunities to shoot pigeons. Flighting can be great when they are coming home to bed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
