Wood Pigeon Decoying On A Foggy Morning
Wood Pigeon Decoying On A Foggy Morning
I was asked by a local farmer if i could help discourage the wood pigeons and corvids from attacking the barley as he was still in the middle of cutting his crop and the birds had descended on it in droves.
This is all done on farm land that i have permission to do so on with legally held air rifles and is done in a legal and humane manner as not to prolong or glorify the death of the birds.
This can legally be done through the Department Of Agriculture, Environment And Rural Affairs Wildlife (Northern Ireland) Order 1985 (As Amended) Licence.
