Over the last 10 years the peregrine population has soared, jesus christ they are putting up nest boxes in towns and are calling them the "urban peregrine". Is it just coincidence that our quality of raceing over the past years is getting beyond a joke.I have heard all the excuses,clashing,illness,weather,doo's not being properly trained,etc,etc.I have witnessed first hand a few peregrine strikes on my birds while training and it is unbelievable what they do to escape.I honestly dont see a future in pigeon raceing unless there is a decline in the numbers of peregrine falcons.

Exactly, the minute pigeons take time to clear the area they are being slaughtered.There was a post on here last year when a guy witnessed hundreds of doo's being chased out to sea.

AND MINE.

PEREGRINE

Well done Chris.

I had one drop in last night from Consett, last youngbird race last year.It has'nt been in anywhere, all discoloured,never cease to amaze.
