nicknsd1978 Posted June 26, 2022 Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 Driving near various pig farms yesterday and was amazed by the amount of birds around. I never knew pig farms attracted so many but why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicknsd1978 Posted June 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 Loads of pigeons too though. It was just a sea of grey. I’ve never seen that many pigeons before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve never seen that many pigeons before Are they on open field? Could be picking at the insects etc in the pig droppings. Get loads of pigeons by me go on the dung heap picking off insects. The crows etc will likely be having a feed from the food troughs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicknsd1978 Posted June 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 Just as many crows as pigeons. Open fields as in huge muddy fields with pig sheds very well spread out. If I didn’t have partner and kids in car I’d have stopped. Just surprised to see the pigeons as nothing but mud around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
