Where have all the pigeons gone?

[Mabaker]

Every day at 12 oclock I take out the food to put on the bird feeder. The pigeons, always being very punctual, form a very orderly queue in true British style on the roof of my shed and take it in turns to partake of the feast. (Other birds do get a look in eventually) . However, today, not one single bird has come anywhere near. The sky is silent. What do they know that I don't. Any ideas?

You are welcome to mine!  Tthey are pests (assuming you are talking about feral pigeons).  We have occasionally wood pigeons, but once the feral ones arrived the wood pigeons disappeared.

I feed tits, finches, robins, great spotted woodpecker and other birds from time to time when they appear.  I used squirel proof feeders.

Any cats about?

They are all on my lawn

They're not afraid of the cats. I have two and they run rings round them. The pigeons look different to the standard. I'm wondering if there's a bird of prey around, didn't see one though

Interesting you mention that - I only have the 'posh' pigeon visitor now - the scruffy ones aren't around in my garden either.

I haven't seen the crows for a while either. Or the parakeets.
