I love hunting big game, but have started hunting rabbits with my recurve this winter. Now, seems only a matter of time until the birds get a grip on me! Love your blog.

It may be that what I thought were returning pigeons were actually new waves of pigeons. Weird thing is that I don't think they keep much (if any) feed in or around this barn.Holly Heyserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03134909592916671876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478505267875308908.post-73059841447492484112011-12-19T12:52:05.156-08:002011-12-19T12:52:05.156-08:00I don't know everything about pigeon behavior,...I don't know everything about pigeon behavior, but did you happen to notice nests or nesting areas in the barn? Pigeons reproduce year round and I was trying to think of what would drive them back into danger that way. As you say, they are very intelligent.
