ellebarto Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Ive got a lovely little hawthorn bush smack in the middle of a rape field and Ive just watched 40 odd crows in groups of 4 to 6 flying over it for 20 minutes. Nothing coming into feed but they are definitely on there way to something. Light breeze but enough to make getting up easy for them. 400 yards behind this bush and down into a slight valley is a seam of oak trees along a stream, rape either side and the trees are full of pigeon with one particular copse of oak being packed. Again nothing on the ground feeding. I had limited time to observe so assuming this is at least a morning to afternoon pattern. What would you do? Is it even bother setting up? I like the hawthorn bush hide and popping crows and last time Iset up under the oak trees I failed to decoy hardly any in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 It sounds as though they are just digesting between feeds. I would bet money that the rape in front of those oak trees has been hit hard. I would head for the copse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
