Batch Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 I was working in Enderby off M69 junction with M1 on Thursday of last week and could not believe the pigeon numbers!! I was with a colleague at one stop watching hundreds of pigeons pouring in to a field of laid barley, Jaw dropped and almost crying, have never seen that many pigeons hitting a field enmasse and from all directions. This wasn't isolated to one field either, there were a couple of other fields in the area being hit in the same manner. The midlands is definitley Pigeon County from what I have seen!! Happy shooting to anyone who has permission in the area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The swath further down looked like a WW11 dogfight made of pigeon. I'm hoping to get on on thursday, weather looks ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
