soreshoulder Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 my gramp said he had found us some pigeons so i went along to see and when we arrived at the field there were bloody HUNDREDS couldnt believe my eyes, watched it for a bit and then set up under a big oak tree, after about 30 mins and nothing taking an interest in my decoys i decided to move and then they i got a few takers, there were loads of birds around but most of them were skitish and didnt want to know, between us we got 17 but my gramp lost most of his (in a separate hide) in a wheat field behind.
