Sounds like a mission to get tis right and happy you guys were successful. The pigeons remind me of rat trap I bought that has bee useless thus far. The first one was the spring trigger one that went off within minutes of setting it. I was quite chaffed until I found out a bird was my first and only victim. This new trap is I believe over engineered and too complicated for a rat to even get to the food lol.

it is indeed a tricky game to capture them. We have tranquilizer darts but will only use them as a last resort because use too much and the animal dies, use too little and it doesn't work. Plus there is always the question of the animal running off initially once struck and if they go sleep somewhere that we can't find them we could actually be making the problem worse.
The same problem hunters have with their bow and arrows as I know someone who chased an animal for hours after being shot and not a kill shot.
