Hot Meat 3,109 Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 Some woodys are clever as fook, when I used to fly pouters as soon as I put them away three woodys would appear, and come down and eat at our feet and even enter the loft to get spilled food lol they even knew dogs wouldn't touch them and would walk within inches of my lurchers they must have seen dogs ignore pouters lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

J Darcy 5,871 Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 You wouldn't have seen that 25 years ago, they seem so much tamer today. I guess they've become humanised, and regard us as givers of food. Lovely birds they are too. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 White Spirit! Brilliant. Cheers, Paul. I knew there was something else I needed to put on my list for town. Woodpigeon? Absolutely f**king top of my list, mate! I'm gagging to find them! God, how I want to ring me some baby woodies! Rocking horse, round here! No cereal crops, see? What an excellent thing it must be, to have one that tame. You lucky, Lucky man! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paulus 26 Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 there as tame as you like, but when you pick up a gun by Jesus do they change, strange there another bird you never truly see until you see, like starlings Quote Link to post Share on other sites
