Pigeons Invade pressing repairs needed!!

Pigeon PatrolPigeons living on the third floor ohhh No!!!.

Gretna City Hall, built in 1907 to serve as the Jefferson Parish courthouse, is in need of critical repairs that the mayor and council members say will have to be made within the next few years.

On a recent walkthrough, she said, an official from the state Office of Facility Planning and Control looked at the council chamber’s variable air damper and said he had never seen one that old before.With many parts of the system dating back to the 1960s, the piecemeal approach to upkeep is expensive, and each solution is likely to create another problem. “You start fooling with these panels, they have carbon streaks, rust, corrosion … and before you know it, you destroy something else,” Folse said. He told the council there is evidence that pigeons are coming in and out of the building on the third floor.  New District 4 Councilman Jackie Berthelot called the building’s condition “deplorable.”

I loathe pigeons! They’re ugly, stupid bullies.

I loathe pigeons! They’re ugly, stupid bullies.

Pigeon PatrolShocking news: The pigeon, is taking over.

If you do not believe me, just look at the figures from last week’s RSPB’s Big Garden Birdwatch survey.

In the past 35 years, sightings of pigeons in our gardens has increased sevenfold, or a horrible 743 per cent, while robins have reduced their cheeky, inquisitive appearances by 45 per cent.

Disgusting: In the past 35 years, sightings of pigeons in our gardens has increased sevenfold, or a horrible 743¿per cent

I suppose there’s someone who welcomes a pigeon into their garden. Probably the same person who feeds them in Trafalgar Square before retiring out of range. But the truth is, pigeons are stupid, irritating, destructive and ugly..

I no longer have a vegetable garden. My pigeon problem is closer to home.

Last year, the pigeons were on the winning side in this  eternal battle. Now I know why. According to the RSPB, there are 5,400,000 breeding pairs of wood pigeons in the UK.

Worse still for us pigeon non-fanciers, they are quite capable of having several families, with two or three eggs per nest, in the course of the year, particularly when the weather is mild.

I didn’t always dislike them. In my childhood, I used to go out in the field and woods with my brothers who were shooting pigeons, and felt quite sad when they downed one.

I was fond, too, of reading stories about brave carrier pigeons that were such heroes in both World Wars. Even this year I was moved by the story of a World War I pigeon named Cher Ami that delivered his message despite being gravely wounded.

He was patched up and given a wooden leg, but died a year later — when it was discovered he was actually a hen, so should have been called Chere Amie.

In the summer I only have to take a deckchair and sit under a tree in a quiet corner of the garden for a pigeon or two to arrive over my head, clattering and banging among the leaves before embarking on a frantic cooing routine, which sounds more like a pneumatic drill.

The saddest thing about this rant is that I really do love birds. I would be prepared to love pigeons if there weren’t so many of them and they didn’t invade my garden.

The only place I am able to admire pigeons nowadays is in Chinese paintings whose artists somehow manage to turn their annoying plumpness into stateliness. They are often paired with peonies or flowering cherry trees, which they inhabit with a proprietorial air, little round eyes gleaming complacently.

Peregrine falcon goes up to keep down pigeon numbers

pigeon patrol 2011, the hospital brought in specialists from NBC Bird and Pest Solutions because the number of pigeons had increased since the building was revamped.

The firm’s bird handlers now bring the birds of prey to the site about three times a week. Duncan Jones, marketing manager for NBC Bird and Pest Solutions, said: “They are used as a predatory deterrent to keep pigeons away. Rather than culling or trapping the pigeons, which could kill them, this is a wildlife friendly way to keep them off the site.

“The pigeons quickly determine that there is a predatory presence in the area and leave.”

Pigeons eat at Burger King

Pigeons eat at Burger King

 

Pigeon Patrol Burger
Pigeon Patrol ran across this funny story!
JANICE McGill tells of ‘disgusting’ experience at burger joint in Glasgow’s Queen Street.
A RETIRED nurse told yesterday how she was left in a flap – after dining with a pair of pigeons in a Burger King.                               Janice McGill, 52, was enjoying a day out in Glasgow with her cousin last week when they decided to eat in the Queen Street outlet. Janice, from Irvine, said: “There were trays and food all over the place. It was disgusting. There were two pigeons walking about on the tables and the floor, rummaging through the food wrappers.”
A Burger King spokesman said: “We take this incident extremely seriously as customer experience and satisfaction are of paramount importance to Burger King.”
Pigeon Patrol could have helped this store by supplying them with the Ultra-Flex bird or pigeon spikes or the best Ultrasonic sound unit on the market today. TubeSonic.
