A chill meet up of pigeon loving folk centred around flock wellness and destringing. Please check out our meet guidelines!

Since our Six Counties Pigeon Support meet up for August was held so early in the month, we decided to hold a second one at the end. Saturday the 29th of August to be exact. This is your chance to meet other pigeon loving folk and see our experienced destringers and rehabbers in action.

The aim of this meet is to educate people on ways they can help their local feral flocks, what to look out for when it comes to their health and the basics of destringing, all while building friendship and team morale!

Please familiarise yourself with our attendee guidelines below. Most importantly, we don't want anyone rushing into any aspect of destringing etc before they are equipped.

As with all guidelines and rules, our aim is to safeguard not only you but also the pigeons.

✨ Guidelines ✨

• Refrain from feeding pigeons until given the go ahead by the designated demo leaders.

• Only feed the minimum needed to attract the pigeons to avoid them filling up too fast, being too spread out or creating mess that may draw too much attention or potential fines.

• Avoid feeding on surfaces people sit on.

• Unless attempting to catch them yourself, stop all feeding once a pigeon is identified as needing help as this will aid in capture.

• When someone is attempting to catch a pigeon, please be mindful of your movement and noise as to not spook the flock. Try to keep distance between you and the target pigeon / flock if not involved in the capture.

• Remain civil and respectful to the public.

• All attendees under 18 must be accompanied by an adult or have permission from their parents. I am happy to have a chat over messenger with them.
