Bewsher500 Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 corbies are Carrion crows. plenty of the ******* round the North East (but you are correct, bit far south for hoodies) crows work just fine as call birds for Larsen traps and will attract magpies all day. see no reason why a ladder trap wouldnt be the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teal Posted July 10, 2012 Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 In my experience crows go more readily to magpies in a larsen than magpies will go to a crow. I think this is because the crow is dominant to magpies in the hierarchy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
