I race my pigeons to lofts situated on an allotment, overlooking a farm and therefore it is good on race days to see batches of pigeons go past and if i am lucky, mine will break from the batch and i notice them early coming in to land.(This is not usually the case!!)
The pigeons i generally see are the amal and club winner's birds but unfortunatly my birds are always lagging behind. ??)
Ah well keep trying next season.
I will lose my novice tag one of these day's - I hope!!
