  • @anjoazul270 If you know about birds you wouldn't CARE.

    I bet you now, go into the wild and you'll see atleast 1 bird kill.

    nob.

  • @TheFalconer66 This clown righteously needs to get a life. Go hug a tree instead!

  • Do you seriously think a Kestrel is going to be able to take wild pigeon? - throwing her a dizzy pigeon is no sport when she's not going to be able to bind to wild ones and if she does go for them you seriously risk damaging her when you aren't able to make in quick enough to help her.

  • @acorntu Pigeons are not pests. This is a false Idea. I bred pigeons when I was young. If pigeons were pests they wouldn’t represent the Holy Spirit. No one can imagine the city of Venice without pigeons. And pigeons don’t transmit diseases. They are even eaten in many countries as a tasty food. They are even attractions in circus. And there are various pigeon breeds. Some of them are very beautiful. What you are saying is ignorance. Just ignorance. 

  • owned

  • @anjoazul270 shut up

  • If you liked birds you wouldn't do that. What you did is the evil.

  • You could have thrown a paper bag out of you bag and it would have taken it.That bird was hungry...i would say about half an ounce under weight at least. Ive had kestrels for most of my life and i know what i am saying.

  • @steadyed Hi Ed, Yeah, Goshawks are very strong hunters. Crows and pigeons are no problem to them. Kestrels and Merlins are pretty cool though :) All the best, mate.

  • @OggyGTA just watched a few Goshawks vids on here I reckon you're right definitely the same m.o and meticulous plucking and cloaking of the wings
