Well done take a bow sir.

Any manage to get to the sale and anyone know how it went.

What date is the show this year.

I’ve been reading a few other posts on the site tonight about changing programs ect and racing 2 YB teams ect I think the first thing we have to consider for the sake of our birds is race points I know most people disagree on west / east ect and someone mentioned Berwick as a race point that’s a big no for me that would mean 15 mile up the road is obstacle one torness power station another 2 mile Dunbar cement works then about 20 miles up the flight path is the 3 bridges each of these 3 places has a falcon nest site and that’s not to mention any that might be nesting in the cliff edge at the sea front. What I saw yesterday was horrendous

Someone should go up and film the attack these falcons have all been put in the places I mentioned and I never mentioned the three bridges on the forth the Lanarkshire and Glasgow routes

Yes and any races from over the water or right down south have four sites I know of that have falcons sizewell , Hartlepool , Torrness and Dunbar cement works the further north the more tired the birds are more than 300 mile on the wing and burnt out when they get to Dunbar imo.

Unfortunately watching the racers go over and through Hartlepool power station today wasn’t as enjoyable as a few weeks ago watched for an hr between 12 and 1pm 9 young racers taken by 3 maybe 4 falcons they were taking one at a time at their Lea sure teaching the babies how to do it I think one was just north of the site directing them towards the site for the other 3 it also looked like the one catching the pigeons was mature as the other 2 were acting excited trying to get dinner from the catcher this might have went on all afternoon as the pigeons were still travelling through at 5 pm what a unlucky line of flight these birds have heading in the Middlesbrough direction.

I had the best seat in the house today for a Doo man I think I was sitting outside have in my lunch break at Hartlepool power station for the whole hr hundreds or birds batches of anything from 20 to 100 hedge hopping must have been liberated within 20 mile of station bad news is 4 perigrans on that station birds looked to be heading south any one any idea where they could have been and going to. So that was at 1230 I first saw them.

FR 2016 009753 found dead at sizewell power station with orange plastic and electronic ring with phone number 0629 478#54 didn’t want to phone it in case it’s french lol any ideas anyone.
