Manymissedpigeon Posted November 16, 2021 Report Share Posted November 16, 2021 I’m not sure that my view of pigeon shooting ( wood pigeon that is) is shared by the majority but the reason I can obtain permission to shoot pigeons up here in t’north is usually down to the amount of dead birds I throw onto the manure heaps at the end of the day which are then seen by, then loaded into the muck spreader the following days by the farmer and ‘ put back onto my field what the ******* have stolen’ as fertiliser. Yes I have taken an odd dozen here and there to various friends when asked but have never sold them to a game dealer and no way will I deliver them to a posh resteraunt ready breasted out etc for a couple of quid. I control pests and the fact that I do not dislike doing this should not detract from the benefit to my enjoyment of partially protecting the food chain and I will not justify doing what I do by saying I eat the horrible things. Damm, my spoons stuck while stirring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
