Pretty. I'm almost tempted. But, I'm not allowed to use a live decoy. And, I need a door I can dock my catching box against. Like I say though; Attractive bit of kit. I've always had a 'Thing' for bars, as opposed to weld mesh. No! Stop it! My mind's working ....! <I'm a licensed Ringer. My Permit specifies I may use " Small Traps ">

Bird; What exactly is this thing doing? Free roaming, or what? Only, I can't help thinking the 'owner' might well be pushing it a bit there. I'm pretty sure a Cassowary is classified as a DWA. Shit like that has to be kept behind a chain link fence, doesn't it?

Bono. Just chucking that out there

Whether or not that's the case; I'll never forget the time a veggie / anti mate of ours threw up all down the wall! Dirty b*****d! Great stream of tofu! I don't remember it stunk of roses either! KR; What you're talking about there? That's just pornography! Imagine that? Having things like Robins, never mind Ring Ouzels. That's just a head wreck! I guess the thing is; Where do you stop? I mean, I've wanted an aviary All my life. Just never been able to. And, I'd have wanted native birds in it too. Why? Because I think they're just the most beautiful things in the world. I marvel

Anyone know of anyone keeping them? If not; Why not? Reason I ask is that I'm just back from ringing some Starlings in my nest boxes. And it's led me to decide a full length, plastic apron must go on my shopping list. And, maybe I should start carrying some alcohol hand sanitiser? (I have nitrile gloves. But, a new pair for each box could be wasteful) Dust mask might not go amiss either. I mean, don't get me wrong; I adore starlings. They're my favourite nest box target bird. But, christ! They're shitty f**kers! Their nests stink to high heaven and the chicks projectile shit all o

A great many of them will deal with Farmers and various sporting stables. Killing shit is as much part of a vet's life as trying to keep it alive.

An oldy, but a goody!

F**king mental stuff there, Paulus. I've worked around some well old buildings and just marvelled at the attention to detail and the sheer Craftsmanship! I honestly doubt any money could find you those sorts of skills today.

Cute little things. But, what's with that one on the left, eye f**king the others all the time?!
-
Aha! Would you believe there's a built in cop out clause on those? Seriously! Believe it or not, the adults aren't really a problem to ring. They're good little behavours, in the hand. I've rung wrens and fires. But the chicks? Perish the thought! Like trying to ring an insect! Nest is the thing though. I don't care how slender your fingers, or how steady your hand: No human is going to safely extricate a brood of wren or crest chicks from the nest. Not consistently. It'll end in tears. Thus, we're simply Not allowed to try it. I've monitored a Firecrest's nest. Did it simply b

I can well appreciate the likely difficulties of closed ringing anything as tiny as a redpoll chick. As a licensed wild bird ringer I, of course, get to use open rings and clinch them with special pliers which I'm sure must be much easier. Baby Willow Warblers, eg. can be testing though! What I did; I went to the chemists and bought their most powerful, off the rack pair of reading glasses. 10 x mag. Cost me a tenner and I look a right fruit in them! They do help though. Take a ring with you. Put the glasses on and see how it looks then. Thinking about it? Closed ring on a Lesser R

Wanna buy a brand new, electric, cement mixer? It's lovely and orange!

Okay. Well, following behind the scenes negotiations, I'm now simply waiting, as a courtesy, to hear from one other member who said he'd make some enquiries, today. That chap's been back on here this evening. But no word yet. Quite possibly he hasn't finished his enquiries yet. What ever. I'll wait to hear from him first. Failing that? I've got a man says he's willing to fetch her, door to door. I'm ready to pay his price too. The Mod's may feel free to wipe this entire thread, or not, at their discretion. It's served its purpose and run its course (Er ..... Pre Ban, that course was,

PM coming up .....

PM being bashed out as you read this. Thanks.

I'm grabbing at straws, mate! And that's a hell of a good idea! God knows; I've heard of Irish 'rescues' sending dogs to UK, even f**king Sweden Some f**kers obviously have the rat runs in place then .....
-
Oooooohhh!!! You called me a Messer! I'm all cut up now. Your opinion means So Much to me! Pavie conya! Scot; Thanks, mate. Sort of angle I'm wondering about.

Can any body help, please? Dog, from about the southern Welsh border to about the Irish border. Forest Of Dean Redneck and I have been through Plan A to about Plan G now. I last told him I'd see if I could pull anything off today. I couldn't. The clock's ticking and, frankly? This post is a sign of my complete desperation. Greyhound Carriers are 'no good', because the only ones touching one base fall, literally, hundreds of miles short of the other. Anyone know of anyone who could possibly join the dots for us, please? FODRN is willing to chip in. I'm prepared to f**king bankrupt

:icon_eek: Oh god almighty!!! I hope that thing's dead! (If not, I bet it wishes it f**king was! )

No! Honestly; I don't think any picture could live up to That descriptive text. Please, leave it right there. In our minds eyes. It's glorious!

F**king Brilliant!!!

Pete loves a laugh ....!

What an excellent point! But, then, I suppose the very idea of WPP suggests that the witness is screaming about some pretty tasty people. I mean; That Paedo' who lives along the road is hardly going to come after you with heat, is he? Grass the likes of the governmental rings? Nothing's going to protect you. Least of all their own agencies. I'm wondering; Could this have been a Dean Koontz novel I was reading? Had a period of lapping his stuff up. I like authors who lace their stories with real facts. It's alright to say " They injected him with Sodium Pentathol to make him tal

No, no! What you people have to realise, see, is that I wear long, white, flowing robes and walk across a sandy landscape, with my walking staff. I contemplate shit like this as I go

Don't even Ask me what made Mick pop into my head, after all these years. I don't know. But, yes; Mick. A self proclaimed Buddhist. Loveliest guy you could hope to meet. Wouldn't hurt a fly. But, f**k me, could you keep him out of your sheds or garages at night ....? How does that pan out ....?
