Do Buzzards eat Pigeons - yes

It started as road kill

Then progressed to picking off tired racing pigeons at the end of long flights

Many racing fanciers have now moved their lofts/racing routes - but the Buzzards have followed.

Problems are particularly acute in Northern Ireland and South Wales

Occaisonally been seen attacking flocks in conjunction with falcons - hit high and low

See various articles in Racing Pigeon News, Northern Ireland RSPB and Worcestershire Wildlife

Buzzards normally roost at night. They are diurnal animals. Nocturnal animals, like the owl will hunt and eat at night, but the turkey buzzards of North America seem to have keen eye sight which they use along with their sense of smell to locate carrion during the day.
