G'day Norm,
Pretty much.

They are highly cunning buggers anyway - I can say from experience, that if you shoot a couple dead on the spot, the rest will piss off for some time. A .22 cal air rifle takes them out just like that!

PS: A poster on another Oz interweb forum I frequent, who is located in Northern SA, cleaned up >900 feral pigeons over a 2 night 'PCP air rifle' cull...

Cheers,
Gadge
