It's legal to shoot rooks (under the Open General Licence) if using a legally-held weapon, on your own land or with the permission of the landowner & primarily acting in defence of crops that the rooks might damage.
They're clever birds, though. It's amazing how they seem to be able to tell the difference between a walking stick & a gun
May 13th used to be the traditional day for shooting branchers (young rooks). Still happens. There's a rookery not too far from us but they're kept under control & we seldom even hear them unless something disturbs them when they're roosting & then they object - noisily.0 -
Stumpy, whether you like schools or I dislike corvids is irrelevant.
The fact is, most people don't like living next to noise, of whatever kind, or in deep shade. The agent has tackled the particular problems with that house head-on, which is why I picked it out.
I didn't know what the regs were re rooks, itsme, but surely not within 50 metres of a public highway?0 -
Pics 3-6 - they've made this place look so bright and full of daylight!

I guess that may depend upon how public the highway is & the direction being shot in.0 -

Yes, and whether they fall straight down, or less conveniently, onto the a local RSPB's member's car, or into the school conservation area. :eek:0 -

That looks like something you'd see at a fairground, so cheap and tacky. And where is the front door?0 -

I thought this was a gorgeous house until I got to the pics of the garden which seems disappointingly small in comparison to the house.0
