September 1 - The Falcon Season Started

The falcons started the attacks right on the first day of September. It will be an interesting autumn.
Fortunately the hawks didn't join so it was much easier. When the hawks join at the loft level, things get really ugly. This was the first encounter with the falcon for the late bred young pigeons. Some of them only started to fly a few days ago. I still have a few to wean and then we are ready to embrace the autumn-winter season.

Finally new video 😊Nothing gives me more of adrenaline rush than seeing my pigeons trying to get away from goshawk or peregrine. Your birds are masters at that ❤

[@Pigeonmaniacom]

Ever got a double dose of adrenaline rush? Pigeon escaping the falcon and 2 hawks waiting for it at the loft. 😆

The Hawks are worse the the falcon?

[@nimaarezoomandi5325]

That falcon,what a pride beast,flying high in the sky,trying to catch birds in a fair battle,not ambushing like a hawk ,not terrorising the dovecote like a hawk...he does nt need those because he is the fastest being on earth 💪 Thank God you re back with your clips.

[@haroonhidayat]

These clips are insane... damn those dives are fabulous

[@simonbealey3080]

Hi mate fantastic video the falcons definitely keep your pigeons in tip top shape love watching every twist and turn to escape 👍

[@JASPREETSINGH-ms5hp]

Good to see you and your birds back, mate. Your birds are so confident, they challenge the beast to have an air battle and win almost all the times. They roam around the falcon, tell him we can see you, confuse him and tire him. Woah, amazing 😍..

[@nimaarezoomandi5325]

They stoop along side the beast😁

[@olddroneflyer6554]

I really liked when the falcon dove on the single pigeon that was up in the sky near the falcon. Falcon stoops and comes screaming down on the pigeon at the speed of sound then levels out on the pigeon and just at the last instant the pigeon jinks left and down and zooom falcon just goes right on by carrying too much energy. Healthy Racing Pigeons rule!!

[@granitispigeonloft]

You have very strong birds, im a pigeon keeper for almost 20 years,mostly highflyer piegons ,english tiplers, but when i see your birds, i think let go all my pigeons ,and start playing first time with racing pigeon.. very smart and strong bird..unbeliveble

[@Pigeonmaniacom]

I like tipplers, very light and small birds, they should be fine with birds of prey, especially hawks. I know hawks have a hard time catching them but the falcons are the problem because they tend to fly very high.

Bei mir jagt der Habicht auch gerne die Tauben. Ich kann kaum abwarten bis kalte Tage beginnen, dann wird er öfters vorbei schauen. 😅😎 Habe mir nur aus diesem Grund Tauben angeschafft um die Greifvögel beim jagen zu beobachten 😍😍. Vor 4 Tagen ist mir der Habicht in den Taubenschlag einer Taube hinterher geflogen😅. Als ich zum Taubenschlag lief kam er mir mit einer Taube in den Krallen entgegen geflogen und ließ sie los und flog über mich drüber. Seine gelb leuchtenden Augen waren schon beeindruckend mit seinem Killer-Blick. 😍

[@Pigeonmaniacom]

Hawks are far more dangerous than falcons. I hate their behaviour of stressing the pigeons at the loft under your eyes. I admire the falcon but I hate the hawk. :)

[@EuL_Abenteuer]

@@Pigeonmaniacom Ich mag beide, den Habicht und den Wanderfalken. Sie jagen beide mit Wahnsinns Geschwindigkeiten die Tauben und vollbringen sehr spektakuläre Manöver. Der Sperber ist auch ein Meister im Kunstflug. Aber der Habicht beeindruckt mich am meisten. Der ist immer da, wenn du gar nicht mit ihm rechnest. Seine rasanten verfolgungsjagten zwischen den Hindernissen über dem Boden sind sehr faszinierend.

The peregrine falcon season started in mid-August. I have Greek high-flying pigeons. Wutas! They fly extremely high. You can't see them anymore. They love the dive. That's what they were made for. When they see a peregrine falcon, they drop like a stone from a great height. They reach a very high speed.

[@Pigeonmaniacom]

Sounds cool. It would be nice to see some videos of the wutas dropping from the sky with the falcon after them.

[@EuL_Abenteuer]

Richtig gutes Video. Bis zum Schluß habe ich mit meinen Kindern gehofft, dass er die eine Taube schnappt. Aber hast richtig gute Tauben, die fähig sind sogar dem Wanderfalken zu entkommen. Ich mag deine Videos, wo der Habicht oder der Wanderfalke deine Tauben jagt.😍😍😍😍😍😜😜

I’m flying pigeons since 1951 and it always amazes me it’s like an actual schedule, no problem all summer on or about September 1 ,It’s Party Time. I have small stock of Canadian Tipplers , last year didn’t let them out till end of Spring, hate to keep them in all winter, also hate to loose birds for no reason, Time will tell.

Lucky for us with no problems until around September 1st. Many fanciers get attacks all year round...

Worst thing to bring on stress then young bird sickness 😭 But certainly keeps the birds fit

[@Pigeonmaniacom]

Got the YB sickness in July on the first 2 rounds of youngsters, after the first training, also during very hot weather (double stress). These late breds were still small protected by the maternal antibodies I guess, I hope they got some immunity naturally for YB sickness.

Most or all all those birds look like youngsters to me. Am I right? Once again you have provided great flights from your pigeons and the wild falcons.

Yes, most of them are late bred youngsters (rounds 3 and 4). I keep them with the mature birds for now until the older youngsters finish the club training.

I've had Cooper's here at my place in the Western U.S. for a few weeks now. It seems like everyone is reporting the same. I think this is going to be a pretty bad season for hawks and falcons everywhere.

[@Pigeonmaniacom]

The worst it can get is when the falcons chase at height and the escaping pigeons find 1-2 hawks waiting at the loft.

[@kerbyjackson88]

@@Pigeonmaniacom Definitely. During the tail end of last year's flying season, I had a kit get tag teamed by a pair of Peregrines and what I assumed were two of their offspring. The birds that made it down were then rushed over the loft tops by a pair of Coopers. That was an ugly day. Four birds lost and five cut up in less than five minutes. The rest of the kit scattered so widely that they over flew and came back one at a time over the next three days.

[@firepigeons]

@@kerbyjackson88 That sounds horror. Maybe you can film next time, that would be a good documentary.

[@kerbyjackson88]

@@firepigeons I for one, hope it doesn't happen again. That said, I have a little bit of footage from other attacks. Most of my losses seem to take place at low altitudes which is much less cinematic than what we're watching here.

[@Dimarik73rus]

Russians have a saying - stuck like a bath leaf to the ass 😂 Still, the falcon is rather weak in front of a low-flying flock. This position is ideal for a goshawk, in front of a hawk doves will not land so easily

[@Pigeonmaniacom]

It was pretty light with hawks in August, I must admit, I loved that. I'd rather have 2 falcons around than 1 hawk. This falcon wasn't really weak but rather not so hungry... when they are seriously hungry they get down after the pigeons in hawk style, I posted some videos like that in the past.

[@Dimarik73rus]

@@Pigeonmaniacom That's right, on your channel I saw a very low falcon attack earlier. Also, a similar attack on the ground was filmed by Siberian pigeon breeders. But this is rare. an ordinary lazy pigeon sits down right at the moment of a falcon attack and stays alive, while a more capable pigeon tries to get away from the chase in the sky and dies. Landing while attacking a hawk is not so easy.

Finally, new video :D I've been waiting for this one for ages :) Today it was the first day I had a prey bird visit at the loft and one third of my birds are still swollen eyed. Luckily, those sick ones were inside and there's no victim just yet. Hope that phase passes soon. Btw, you should know that now, that automn is here, I'll reset my popcorn stack, because I hope more videos will come :)

[@Pigeonmaniacom]

My big youngsters have just finished the eye problem, it needs 7-10 days to cycle through all of the birds in the section, the more birds the longer it takes to spread and finish. The late bred youngsters from the video are with the mature birds and fortunately... no eye problem for now. But I am 100% sure it will popup soon, I expect it this month. Annoying. Yeah, get the popcorn! :)

One drone will solve your falcon problem
