Just starting to notice them moving over some set aside and failed crops in numbers, not young birds either.

Popping out this afternoon for a short session.

i have seen an increase in both pigeon and crows!! In need of some serious culling!!

I'm seeing them all over now. I've been seeing them in pairs here on the estate for a while now, but the numbers seem to be on the increase. I'm also seeing them in other parts of the town where I've never seen them before. Same with collared doves.

ive noticed a big increase on my patch to. on grass fields which iam assuming would be in pursuit of clover??

there was at least 6 or 7 of them in the field me and dan went today managed to get one of them he run over to grab it and the other 3 flew off we'd thought they'd gone when we had shot it

[Guest Bubbleduck]

There are loads of them on my shoot and I've plenty in my freezer at the moment.

I don't like shooting them unless I can do something useful with them as it seems such a waste. I don't know anyone who likes them to eat and I have asked the local butchers but they said there's no demand for them round here. Any ideas on what I can do with them?

Loads of collared doves as well.

Iv quite a few with me working the clova but i have a bean field they were working & got 21 woodies 4 rooks & 1 scut in 2.1/2hr. I dont like shooting them at this time of year unless i really have to & as for roost shooting them its not the time of year & the woods would be better left in peace for the other wildlife & save disturbance its a busy place with new life give it respect.
