I lost my first bird in the year I have been flying on Saturaday. When I figured out wich one it was I was mad. He was my deepest pigeon, with good freguency. I changed my fly time and flew today with out incident.
May want to consider just flying the opposite time of when the attack was. If the attack was in the am fly in pm and see if it is safe.
Good luck, and sorry for your loss, it does suck.

Lost another today, Lock down for me. And we have a club fly on Saturday. It really sucks. It is a pair of falcons here. I hope they move on when I close the buffet for a couple of weeks.

Vary your pattern. Make your flight time unpredictable unless of course you have a breeding falcon pair which nests near your loft and you are in trouble. I don't know the solution to that!
