Thats like breeding hares for courseing.Think that might be against the law!

Basketing is going ahead on Friday 19th Aug.Birdage per crate is 20.Thank you.

Approx. 1,950 birds were liberated from brechin at 11:00,broken cloud sunshine and a fresh south/south east wind.birds cleared site very well.GOOD LUCK TO ALL.

Weather conditions are set to improve throughout the morning,I am hopeful of a liberation between 10:00 and 12:00.

I can do somersaults

Basketing is going ahead on friday 12th Aug,birdage per crate is 25.

Totally agree batches of birds hit by peregrine scatter and will fly hundreds yes hundreds of miles in opposite direction,no wander they dont return.

Thanks for lookin after my doo John.

As i say to davy every week our main concern is a decent lib with blue sky visible to birds.Every lib this year they have had this and cleared sites quickly,it dosent seem to matter now whether 60mls or 460mls every race is a marathon for a lot of birds through no fault of their own.Have you ever seen the like waiting all day for birds to return from brechin,most birds should be at your loft within an hour of your first arival,doesnt happen anymore.

On a day of good visability,broken cloud and sun at liberation why were returns slow and drawn out.I anticipated winning birds doing 45mph.With no question of clashing being an option,why such a funny race?

Approx 1,400 birds were liberated from Thornton at 08:00.Broken cloud,sunshine and no wind.Birds cleared racepoint very well with no disruption(bop)GOOD LUCK TO ALL.

FACT.pair at stirling hill south of peterhead,pair at St.fergus gas terminal north of peterhead,THEY'VE got us surrounded,pair at collieston,Aberdeen city,dont know how many pairs,pair at belhelvie quarry,pair at stonehaven,from norh to south this is approx 30mls.

Basketing is going ahead on Friday 5th,birdage per crate is 23.

North Of Scotland Federation Brechin Liberation Approx.1,950 birds were liberated at 12:15.Broken cloud,sunshine and very light east wind.Birds cleared immediatly.GOOD LUCK TO ALL.

1st north sec.9th open Newbury 2003,3rd north sec.40th open Tours 2011,both late breds,i think they need 10 maybe 12 tosses in year of birth and raced to approx.250mls as yearlings.

It just makes you wander even more what happened that day.I have only heard of 5 birds that have made it in the north.Some fanciers have said they think the birds have headed in a westerly direction over ireland.

Basketing is going ahead on friday 29th july. Birdage per crate will be no less than 25 birds,any loose crates will be topped up enroute.THANK YOU.

So why go to St.Boswells this week after such a disaster.

Over the past fortnight my mate has had 3 out of his 5 Messac doos return under their own steam.His 1st had been injured but the gash had healed and feathers had started to grow back,his second 2 are skeletons,Ive had 1/4 returned in a box from Penzance.are there any more birds returning by their own,have you had? or have you heard of?

In the last week or so,my mate has had 2 doos return from Messac.

Approx.1,380 birds were liberated at 07:30.broken cloud,sunny spells and a freshening w/nw.wind.GOOD LUCK TO ALL...I would also like to take this oppertunity to remind members of the north of scotland fed that this is liberation details only.If you wish to make any derogatory comments please open your own topic for discussion because personally i think it is getting very embarrasing for our fed.THANK YOU.

We really have to do something and very quickly,these fekin things are breeding and producing more fekers.in my opinion these things are KILLING a lot more birds than we realise,and they will be the death of sport

Sorry John but my humour seems to be lost on you.

WELL SAID, SOMEONE WITH A BIT OF COMMON SENSE.PS.Any takers as to whitch time birds should be liberated tomorrow?
