Vicki245 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 We're just back from Loxley and heard the bangs. Really loud down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derfblade Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Maybe it was the after shock from Wembley after Wednesdays play-off defeat when the bubble burst.:hihi::hihi: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.blaze Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 I can confirm they are bird scarer's, there are a lot of crows on the fields at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewBiz Posted July 19, 2016 Author Share Posted July 19, 2016 My concern is that one goes off near me and my horse when we're out and then it won't just be birds that are being scared, downright dangerous. They're so loud. How much scaring does your average crow need for crying out loud? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last thing they would want would be to injure a horse or a person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do however seem convinced you are the centre of the universe, if you have a problem with this particular farmer then go and see him, maybe he will let you run round his fields screaming at the crows pecking away at his valuable crops.

Not quite sure where you got that from, there's a few of us who are in earshot of this device and all of us are getting fed up of hearing it. It's excessively loud, two shots every hour with the odd pair being fired before sunrise. The NFU have some very sensible guidelines regarding the use of audible scarers, just a shame this farmer doesn't feel the need to follow them.
