crowcaller Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 set up on a barley drill, 2 big fields sown after watching crows and pigeons feeding was about to set up when farmer came and started 2 roll the sowing,so set up on the secound field , not as mutch cover on this one but set hide against a high bank, got a pigeon , and the shot disturbed some crows that passed the deeks wide,after a 20 mmin,lull a crow came from behind and i shot it . put it on flapper and it made a big differance, crows came in to deeks with confidance,i shot some nice birds but missed some that i should have got, ended up with 15 crows and a woodie, would have had more if i had set up earlier, all the crows were carrion crows.

P.Shuter Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 What area do you live in, just wondered when you say : "all the crows were carrion crows" Here in the UK we have crows ( carrion crow corvus carone and hooded crows ) do you get hoodies ?

wattsowatts Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 Friend and I was on Barley Drilling this morning, having received a call from the farmer in the week. In four hours we ended up with 100 picked crows and rooks as well as 9 pigeon - all for 186 shots. First outing since the game season finished, now have the pleasure of sore shoulder.
