hitnmiss Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 Just been on holiday to France and couldn't belive the numbers of pigeons, we were out on the west coast not a huge arable area as it's mostly marsh area, we sat outside in the evening's with a beer or 2 and was getting very frustrated at the constant flight of pigeons right over my head! Even at 10 o'clock at night they were still going to feed on a grass field just out the back of the campsite, I think there was a lot of clover in it. They were coming over about 20/30ft up in 1's and 2's, it would have been a lovely place to shoot as the tree's were thin enough to see through but thick enough to hide behind. To really to the mick they were even landing on the caravan roof's and *******!!!! It got to a point where I couldn't take any more and resorted to thrown stones at them as they flew over, I nearly got one as well! Any way just thought I would share that with you.
