Magpies are gay Posted May 31, 2004 Report Share Posted May 31, 2004 Helloooooo! I was wondering if i could use my pigeon call when decoying, would it make a differnce??? And i have noticed that some pigeons sit in the tree "coo" ing at the decoys, does this mean i have to "cooo" back or somthing??? And with crows i noticed the carrians sit in trees about 100 yards away and "caw" at the decoys 3 times, and after about 20 seconds then they just fly off, was this becuase it didnt get a reply?? Please help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tody27 Posted June 1, 2004 Report Share Posted June 1, 2004 When pigeons are feeding on the ground they do not coo. They only coo when they are in trees- so cooing from your decoys on the ground will have an ill effect. I have often put decoys in trees and called out to other pigeons- this works. As for crows, you have the right idea. The crows are cawing at the decoys to get a reply. If they dont get a reply they know the "crows" are actually decoys. Therefore if you caw in the correct manner the crows will have the confidence to come into range. hope this helps, tody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
