Way to stop Hawks

[LUCKYT]

All i have to add to this is, Oriental rollers must be FLYING Oriental rollers, NOT show Birds. The 3 real ones i had years ago out flew Hawks for years, until like i fool, i traded them off. Show Types are almost easier to catch then Birmingham Rollers! I am still looking! Dave.

Let me say something. there is a good wild bird to have around. My grandfather (had better luck then I did) lived in a wooded area and he had alot of crows. And i have personally witnessed the crows chasing the hawks away. And when they spot one they crow like crazy and the birds new and they darted back to the coop. So they helped where by me, no crows around and i lost my pet pigeons. Now i am going to be moving to the woods of PA. . . . and i can have pigeons again. Would it be safer to fly them? I will be trap training them so they now the shake shake shake means get into the coop for food. good idea?

you guys should try using a remote control air plane to try to chase the BOP away. It's just a thought, i'm not sure if it will work, but i might work as well.

A remote controlled airplane is a nice thought, but won't work in practicality. You would need a football sized clear field to have any success with it. Most have trees and such around.

yeah I agree you would never have enuf time to get that plane into the air let alone the area of where the hawk is that is hitting on your birds
