Please take the time to complete this survey, even more so if you are a landowner/ farmer affected and have incurred economic impact as a result. https://www.research.net/r/BASC-GLsurvey

Apparently not. If you're not killing for crop protection and as a last resort, after first trying and documenting the alternative methods you've tried and recording the substantive losses you've incurred as a result of pigeons, you cannot shoot them at all. Especially not if you just fancy one...

Dear Sir/ Madam, I reply to your request for the following: 1) Views on the alternatives to killing or taking a specific bird species for: • Conserving flora and fauna • Preserving public health or safety • Preventing serious damage or disease (serious damage relates to serious damage to...

Bad of me...

My (untruthful) message to my Conservative MP: Dear Mr. X, It is with regret that I voted for the X party yesterday. Ordinarily I would have voted Conservative, having done so all my adult life. However, the on-going issues between the appointed government minister, Mr. Gove, Natural England...

Why?

I know, the house sparrows I've been watching all spring had all three chicks pulled out by magpies on Monday. Two dead, one as good as. Great flipping work Wild Justice. All I can do is watch as the go through the hedgerows, pestering everything else. We pulled all the Larsens in last week. The...

About Paul. His Blog on Packham, the GL and NE.

The forms are up and online. I'm not sharing my name, address and phone number with NE and the terms of the licences are too onerous with threatening overtones. In the words of the Dragon's 'for that reason, I'm out'.

Well, I suspect the rot runs deeper. So much so I've written again to my MP. I am concerned about the apparent alliances formed between NE, RSPB, WJ and the Environment Secretary. Whilst the recent events appear to be a hiccup, the relentless onslaught of Avery and Packham will continue unless...

Nowt wrong with that. I think I only own one item of clothing that isn't.

Have a look at this to get the sense off the bent nonsense going on with the RSPB, WJ, NE and that worm lipped cretin, Gove. https://www.fieldsportschannel.tv/who-will-get-sacked-gove-packham-or-marian-spain/ The lot of them should be sacked and replaced with individuals without an agenda or...

If you want an idea of just how incestuous the relationship is between all the main parties in this, just have a look here: https://www.fieldsportschannel.tv/who-will-get-sacked-gove-packham-or-marian-spain/ Shooting is going to be fluffed if this lot remain in their posts.

According to this (table 1), you can simply plant some decoy crops to lure the pigeons onto that. Get your tractors out folks (it's not like you have that much to do in a day). https://cereals.ahdb.org.uk/media/1191562/11-15_Woodpigeon_factsheet_web.pdf

Well, I'm not a farmer but have spent years helping with pest control on farms, be that rabbit shooting, foxing around livestock, deer stalking here in herts and essex and, of course, pigeon shooting. To me this is just a thin end of the wedge, once they (wild justice) get a sniff of success...

Setting all devices to POP3 is not recommended. On some servers this can 'lock' the other devices out, depending on the server settings. The recommended settings for all servers are one device set to POP3 and the rest set to IMAP (mobile and portable devices).

Make sure the iPhone is set to receive emails via IMAP and not POP3. Your office computer should be set to POP3. If you set your phone as POP3 it will prevent mail coming through to another POP3 device. Only one device on any email account can be POP3 enabled, all the rest have to be set to...

Okay, some tips on improving your broadband, I upped my dire 1.5mbps to over 5mbps by using these simple methods. 1. Your house telephone cabling, if old, is likely to be the main offender. In the past extra sockets and suchlike were wired in what was known as a 'star', that is a spaghetti like...

I'll keep on plugging away with this every now and then in the hope that somebody nearby is watching there crops getting hammered and pulling their hair out :mad:

Try many before you buy, especially if buying new. Check the fit and 'feel'. Are you going to use it in a hide as a pigeon gun or for driven days? These things are worth considering as they can affect barrel length, choke choice, preferred weight etc. My little old 686 has done me proud for...
