both were there earlier

yes i saw them as well steve, pair of b******s.................. do you think those white feathers are pigeons steve ?

more than likely will be 1st time ive seen both there shotgun on camera would be good viewing

yes too right, you werent a member when the other camera was on steve.....a pair of pigeons had moved into the bop box and layed eggs, they were sitting them for a couple of weeks and then all of a sudden the camera went off....when it came back on the pigeons had gone and i think the rspb had got them removed and killed.......

yes i read about that David

never heard any more about it steve, but as they were ferals the pspb will/can only have had them killed .......most likely by these pest companies that kill vermin etc....

think its obvious they killed them

yes, i think that was the general feeling amoung the people who were watching them on camera.....no protecting the pigeons tho were they (rspb)

heres a great one for you lads, went to the worchester nest cam, saw a comment saying oh what a rare site seeeing perigrines. So I posted a comment saying how foolish the rspb are , when they say where have all the cuckoos and song birds gone, well I can tel them in the perigrine nest cam. And guess what it came back ..we will post the comment as soon as we check it fro relevancy and accuracy, so basicall we are being censored, no free speach, no opinons on there just what they want to see, all comments that dont suit are deleted, Fxcking liberty if you ask me I got a good mind to complain to the cam peope.

well said martain.

that will be right,baxxards

they wana come down to pembrokeshire martain wot u say.i got 4 pairs within a 6 mile radius of my loft we get a smashing every year.the only reason i think our club is still going becuase the boys have bin in it to long.i am the youngest at 27 and the oldest 80 not a chance of young fanciers

so near but yet so far steve, if only it was possible to get to it and stroke it

makes my blood boil when i think it will be out hunting its favourite food........

i read other day a young pr of peregrine killed older cock badly hurt and blinded hen took nest site over, would have liked to have seen it happen, old hen rspb got it back to health releasing it in yorkshire, hopefully to be finished off

its amazing to what lenghts these people will go to to alter the balance of nature isnt it.....? suppose its the same the world over, upsetting the balance of nature.......playing god.

these people are arseholes david,do i really need to tell you this?(think not)

pete.

4 hatched 2 died fed to other 2 left

steve there is 3 left only one dead

3 left but 1 is dead i was told ian tonights supper being kept warm

three left, is another three too many........................hope the other three die soon

just come on to check the webcam, cant get on....maybe the box has been removed did read in one of the weeklys that some of the boxes had to be removed due to health and safety incase debri fell on members of the public

i was just reading the dead percy topic and it sort of veered off the topic[always does lol] and a comment was made as tothe homing instincts of a feral,well when i was a kid [many moons ago]i saved a feral chick from the pest control at our school the mother had nested on a drain out side the window any way me being me i hand reared it and it was a fine looking feral ,a bit of a light chequer it followed me every where but my mother said its shitting all over the bikes in the shed so it had to go.well im from a strong sunderland supporting family and i would acompany my father to our away games so the bird went to southampton vs sunderland game and i let it out the box guess who came back 3 days later ? yep lads it came back every time up and down country i eventually gave it to a bloke who we called the pigeon man and he couldnt settle it ,it just came looking for me then one day it dissapeared and i think my dad necked it to keep mother happy those things happened in the old days lol

your right, they have the same homing ability as racers and thats defo....I used to get streeter youngsters from and old she on our docks when I was about 12,

sorry posted without finishing by mistake...as I was sayingI used to get streeters, and one day I went up to a nest in the attic of an old shed and found a beautifull dark chequer pied streeter just about to be weened, I caught it and brought it home, I kept it in and tried to settle it with my other youngsters but it disapeared, about a week later I went back to the docks and there with my plastic ring on was the streeter pied, It had gone back about 4 miles to the docks to the shed, and it had never been out of the attic as when I collected it it was too small to fly.

derby nestcam is now working again.................
