Title: In My Opinion - Save our songbirds from being slaughtered by falcons Post by: Donna on 17-Nov-15, 07:42:12 AM Both falcons and sparrow hawks exist upon their ability to kill, and feed upon other bird life. The Song Bird Trust says that hawks kill 250,000 song birds a day in Great Britain.

Sounds like the pigeon fanciers are probably behind this story! :rolleyes:

Anything I can find on chicken hawks look like coops or sharpies. Their precious pigeons :bow: ........don't get me started. A huge decline in the house sparrow, that's because the danged things are all over in the U.S. now! Considering the number hawks take, quit blaming it all on falcons. :aaarggh:
