English falcons trained to scare pigeons off Wimbledon courts
Outside their house in Brigstock, Nothamptonshire, falconers Wayne and Donna Davis train their birds with the help of bait, GPS systems and special hoods.
The falcons are being trained to scare pigeons away from the renowned grass courts of the Wimbledon tennis tournament, held each year in July -- a job Davis can't get enough of.
