Timelord 0 Posted August 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 Well he's well and truelly jammed in the top of the drain pipe and because I don't have ladder he'll have to stay there and rot LOL!!! Quote Link to post
Timelord 0 Posted August 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 Well it's official that I've wiped out nearly all the magpies and crows for now, I have a head count of 12 magpies and 17 crows with this wonderful pistol I can now hear song birds cherping happily in the morning and throughout the day too It's now back to plinking in the garden until the next brood of vermin either breeds or arrives on my manor Quote Link to post
Guest JohnGalway Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 Don't visit in here much but it's been interesting reading whenever I have I've often seen when shooting hooded crows that magpies if they're int he area will come along, some even as brazen as dancing on the corpse Often got 3-4 maggies this way literally as quick as I could reload. Laid out a hoodie once, and I set up a trail camera watching him. You would not believe the number of corvids came along during the day to look at and pick at him. Some would even throw the body up in the air Most time they would visit was early early morning but they would come along during daylight also and up until night when the camera would switch to IR mode. Hope that helps some Quote Link to post

Hope that helps some Well I've been baiting them with the corpses and had the results too, now setting up a camera sound like a really good idea just to check out their behaviour patterns. Thanks for the tip mate In the mean time it's just a waiting game until the reappear as I've wiped them all out for the time being. If I have seen any they've stayed the F**K away from here because they are not stupid I hope they have short memories because me and my Sheridan will be waiting Quote Link to post
Guest JohnGalway Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 Oh they'll be back alright, just give them a little time Quote Link to post
