Spot on Wiley, most of them i understand, there are some of them that must be Belgium because they would mean nothing in Afrikaans. very handy list to have though
there you go IB, just to show how close the two languages are, in Afrikaans "moeder" is mother and Vader is father. "Die Duif" is The Pigeon. there you go, a daily class in the Afrikaans language
You could be right Wiley. its just that Dutch is very simelar to Afrikaans except the dutch put the letters "EN" onto the end of most of their words. a Pigeon in Afrikaans is a Duif which is why i thought thats what it was. i am able to communicate fluently with the people in NL because of my afrikaans backround but like i say i could be wrong about that one
Hi Marianne, looking at your photo's, is that a balcony which you can see through the window on the first photo? if so, why not look at having something wall mounted outside?
the comment as i read it was that the bird beating 5000 birds was no better than one beating 300? no mention of wind or loft location. anyway, not going to fall out over this, just i know which one i would rather spend my money on
i couldnt disagree with this more :emoticon-0138-thinking: if you take a combine race, a pigeon that wins his club and fed lets say 600 birds, could end up 50th combine 28000 birds. Sorry, not as good as the combine winner IMO
I race in Horden homing society (average 400 - 500 birds pw South East Durham fed (average between 2500 - 3000 birds pw Up North Combine (could be anything up to 30 000 birds in the combine races. :egyptian: :egyptian:
