old rooster Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 Hope it works out for you mate, we've had snow and sleet but no snow that will hold on. I was hoping it would cover the rape that wasn't too well on so that the fields that had got away a bit would show through and concentrate pigeon activity. Doesn't look like happening now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dodeer Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 Lander, as i drove past your estate yesterday there were a **** load of pigeons as you drive round a bend with a great big stubble field on your left with a new barn and a new tree plantation in the bottom. On the bend there is a little patch of trees and they were there- not sure if it's too close to the road or not to decoy safely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunganick Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 that sounds pretty good to me, just got back from vermin drive, personally had 2 tree rats and no foxes, but as a team of 20 we accounted for about 35 tree rats , 1 fox and a few jays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
