when I last saw them they were bunched up and heading in the direction of home. They have had about 10 tosses so they are getting the hang of it. Obviously a hawk, or hawks, have hit them.
Theres' plenty of them around here.
Life in Bendigo.
Oh. for sure.

They are everywhere, a big hen keeps coming here hovering just above lofts and going after neighbours birds took one couple weeks ago and crows stopped other attacks thankfully crows are building nest 2 gardens away so that and the magpies not forgetting seagulls a few hawks are sent packing
Sadies Lofts home of decent birds just a useless loft manager, and now a confirmed loser but proud
Very nice mateMurray wrote: ↑Mon Mar 13, 2023 11:31 pm Old Gordon and Mrs Gordon raised another pair of babies for my mate David.
By the father of my Billion Dollar Baby, he’s mostly Heremans.
The mother is a Jansen. And the babies, both hens, have the beautiful soft, satiny plumage that you get from the Jansen.
When he came to collect them he insisted I keep one so I picked the finer one and he took the bigger one.
Next day she was out on the stock shed with her father.
She is gorgeous. What’s better than a Billion?
A trillion. That’s her name. Trillian. Like the Hitch hikers guide to the galaxy
. What’s better than a Billion?
Good to hear all your babies turned up safely mate
being an ex farmer I am all for nature but these bloody hawks do need controlling 
No, Andy, it won't hurt them.
After a day inside because of the heat on Saturday, they were full of beans again yesterday.

I was walking past the loft and saw a little blue bar scoffing the feed in the sputnik.
I was not sure about it, so I went in and caught it. That immediately made me alert. I don't have to 'catch' my pigeons as a rule.
But it's one of mine alright. 2764. Went missing from a race last year.
The pigeon is in pretty good condition, certainly not like it has been living rough.
This is the second one to turn up like that. I am wondering, is someone around here keeping strays?
I am not happy.

Good to see its finally made it's way back Muzza, maybe somebody has bred gromit and then tried to break it !! I think that a fair few fanciers have so many birds that they wouldn't know if they had a stray or not 
There are others of course who just don't bother reporting them these days as they either get no reply or the same response of you can keep it !!!
