Thread: 1080 KILLING FISH

Much of a pigeons water needs are provided by water trapped in the forks of trees. (These water traps also trap 1080 pellets with fatal results for these and other birds)

I have noticed over the years that in some areas pigeons are forced to come down to the forest floor to drink and bathe. I am sure they avoid doing this as much as possible as they are so awkward and vulnerable on the ground in a forest.

In saying that they will graze in open paddocks on the Coromandel where they must feel safe. I suspect they will be after clover.
