Too many people have too much time on their hands to make trouble! Nature does, what nature does.

Round here we now have several birds of prey and I often see one feasting on normally a ring dove. Unfortunately, pigeons seem to be just that bit big for it to cope with now it has eaten all of the local population of ring doves, so there are still plenty of those around.

[chrisgixer]

Or who gives a break. Just stop feeding the dam birds and the problem goes away.
 no food-=no birds simples.

Have you actually read what you've posted there. ( that local water must glow in the dark )

[Mr Gav]

Without being able to visualise what is happening, I'm erring on the side of the complantive.  If she is enouraging birds (and he has said Pigeons) then she should be put in front of her family and shot.

Sky Rats are taking over.  We must arm ourselves against them (and Dog eating Gull's too!!!!)

I second the above motion.... Can I have a nice berretta over n under... Please,hofficer.

1 post says she's doesn't feed pigeons
2 why does the neighbours assume because she has a bird table she is feeding pigeons
3 even if she is feeding pigeons, why would any sane person presume the a house 3 gardens away is directing pigeons to then shit on their conservatree
4 why hasn't any person in the process wondered if it's even slightly possible that
A it might not be pigeons
B the culprit bird may have nothing to do with being fed in anyone's garden
C what Dna evidence (or otherwise ) is there that the food in said poop came from said garden.
D could it possibly be, by some wild stretch of the imagination, that some random bird took a dump without giving a shit who's conservatree it lands on.
E why haven't the council got anything better to do? Like, oh I don't know, telling people they have no right to complain about something so pathetic about a bird taking a dump.

I`m with you on this one Chris

Well if it was me I'd have Warbies on overtime baking enough bread to feed a flock of the flying rats and see if they couldn't whitewash the conservatree into oblivion. 

I wonder if they like Naga Chicken?

Probably.  Birds, unike most Mammals (Humans Included) are not allergic to Capsaicin.  Birds will happily eat the Chilli from the Plant.

There are moves afoot for pigeon lofts, bird tables, and sling shot batteries armed with nasty looking brown and white substances laden with berries and bird seed.

[chrisgixer]

But where is the sense at the council offices. (Ok contradiction in terms there ) where we have council money from tax payers paying somebody to .... Oh ffs... (Gixer gives up and leaves the room )

[Jusme]

I'm really split on this? Cannot agree with going to the authorities, but I'll be popping next door shortly to complain too. Little old lady keeps putting slices of bread out in the front garden every afternoon. Don't get me wrong, I love our little feathered friends, but 'every' darned afternoon there's about 20 or 30 gulls wheeling around above my cars, have you seen the size of their dumps.. 

[chrisgixer]

Hmmmm. Lincoln. ...Out of range for a sligshot?

[Broomies Mate]

I'm cutting down a neighbours tree in Autumn..... The neighbour doesnt know it yet.  I can handle the sap, I can handle the leaves, I can't handle the bird shit which lands on my car every 5 minutes the car is parked there.

Overhanging my property, so it's going!

[chrisgixer]

It is annoying though, true enough.

We have had a problem with flying shitting machines (pigeons) down at my end of our street earlier on this summer.
A mates moggy got 3 of them in his garden.
3 more met a 0.22 hard point pellet each early one morning while they where happily cooing and shitting all over the place.

A couple of days later, i'm talking to the local rug munchers down the road and the conversation drifts to what pets we have.
Me, I have a big daft (or evil if your not friendly) German Sheppard.
It turns out my rug munching friends down the road keep pigeons and quite a few have gone missing recently 

Gonads makes his polite excuses and leaves .................   

[Terbs]

Lucky he don't live around here....Red Kite plague...
Those who come to Wycombe meet will have seen the vast amount of Red Kites circling around the sky.
You want to see the size of the bombs they drop on your car here......probably break his conservatory roof

A few of our neighbours put out food for them......me and grandson counted seventeen circling and dropping into her garden next door....and they ain't arf big !!!!!!!

Hmm. How much airspace is there above you? Could maybe arrange a really big "pigeon".

My glider takes 70 litres of water ballast in each wing.. Mix in a bit of lime...

[Gaffers]

What gets me is the lack of moral courage of some to actually go and talk to the person concerned and explain the issue.  Then by some miracle a two-way dialogue occurs and problems get resolved or points of view clariffied without this p!ss-arsing around with the council. 

Some people need to grow a set of balls.
