Strangely Brown Posted April 27, 2019 Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 I've applied for the licence but am struggling to understand where wood pigeons come into the equation. Can I still shoot them, or have they got to be on crops? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One on top of two Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 The above licence is for shooting crows to protect livestock only , it will NOT cover you for shooting anything else or crop protection . the licences cover the shooting of birds for crop protection are hopefully being added from tomorrow onwards ( Monday ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VarmLR Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 General licence now issued for crow only. No general Corvid licence which is barmy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Miller Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 The only licence issued so far is about as useful as tits on a bull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spanner Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 No it's atrocious, have you read it!! Think Packham wrote it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Miller Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 Not Packham, but his RSPB buddies Spain & Juniper. How is this licensing issue a matter for NE? Surely it should be DEFRA that manages the control of pest species. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy W Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 It doesn't help the cause when attention seeking publicity whores post on their 'English Shooting' pages of Social Media that they've just discovered Hunting and what good fun Pigeon Shooting is................... On the one hand everyone is saying it is necessary and has a good reason, then others jump in saying what jolly fun it is........people, that is, who publicly declare they've had their FAC and SGC taken away as they are deemed unsuitable. The shooting fraternity are their own worst enemies. IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Miller Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 Gove, Packham, Avery, Spain & Juniper. What a rosy, cosy relationship. As highlighted already, by Fieldsports Britain. To be fair my MP has been quite responsive, forwarding the correspondence from Gove as it arrives, hot off the press. Completely useless of course, but then he is a Tory and a Sir...
