Daz 7 563 Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Asked by My Neighbour to Cull some of the woodpigeons has their out numbering the song birds at the feeders, Especially has it's nesting time the pigeons are fighting amongst them selves at the feeders which is keeping the smaller birds away. Unlike out in the fields which has a shortage around here of flocks of Woodies but these are more domesticated and don't seem to stray far has they are spoilt for choice with all the feeders and trees just starting to come into bud. So their numbers have increased unlike their more wild cousins, This one was only 22 yards away and a nice clean headshot with the .25 cal Rapid. atvb Daz 7 Quote Link to post

Craig Fosse 286 Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 Nice shot mate, I like this video, it shows exactly how much a woodpigeon moves and why the heart and lung shot is preferred by others 1 Quote Link to post
