pigeon controller Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 When we were out on Saturday the farmer asked if I could pop over in the week to sort out the crows. I went out this morning with my normal three thawed crows and drove down to the field of combined oats. The crows and jackdaws were all over the field but were also in a sitty tree on the windward edge of the field, so i decided to set up in range of the sitty tree with my back to the wind and in the shade of the tall hedge. Just to the left of the sitty tree there was a gap in the hedge about five yards wide so I put the decoys on the field so you could see them from the back. Most of the birds came from the back and circled above me towards the decoys which I put on spikes until I had fifty out in front. I also had six pigeons that flew high over in front using the tree as a passing point. It all finished about 16.00 and I picked up One Hundred and fifty eight crows and jackdaws and the six pigeon.
