A few back garden Woodies.. (1 Viewer)

Hi

We seem to get a lot of wood Pigeons and Doves in our back garden (They're usually scoffing the spillage from the messy smaller birds on the feeders!!)

We have so many neighbours cats that stroll through our garden and kill the Pigeons, I'm thinking about getting some kind of repellant to keep them out, I think landmines would be effective if a bit extreme! o:)

John..

I have a pair of Wood Pigeons in my garden most days throughout the year, and occasionally have a couple of Collared Doves too. They were here the last two weeks, but have gone again; they'll likely not be back now until the autumn.

Re your cat problem, you may find some 'less extreme';) ideas in this sticky thread from the Garden Birds forum: https://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=42039
