Thank you for your comforting words, Jacksparrow :shake:.
I thought I'd take a pic of The Muncher toady, and realised there were two of them in the tree :weep:. Sold the camera and bought an AK47.

A small tip for a friend in need. I think you might find the AK47 a little unwieldy for pigeon shooting therefore a quick phonecall to your local Peregrine Falcon handler may produce more positive and lasting results. :yes:

Do peregrine falcons like cherries - or indeed, cherry blossoms ?? :unsure:

My neighbour has a small Ash tree to the front of his house. It is actually on our shared border,my drive/his forecourt. A pair of Woodies has chosen it for their next home and nest building is proceeding apace. OK so far but the actual nest site is only about 10 feet from the ground and right over where my neighbour parks his car. "I can see problems ahead................."

The bird sat on the nest is in the middle of the photo.

It's an odd photo, Jacksparrow - neighbour's forecourt and your 3-mile long drive :scratch:.

Is the woodie under discussion just above the chimbley pot ?? (It took me a long time to place it .)

Yep, that it. The bird's tail is visible but I was having problems with the leaves thrashing around in the high winds we've had today. :(

Mrs Pigeon is a little clearer in this one.
