well, just back from picking a bird up from workington and guess what, its one of these 5 birds, can i just say a big well done to the lads who brought it back and the lad at barrow for looking after it, cheers, keith
don't think our birds would have clashed with yours mate as we wouldn't have got to garstang area before 5pm but we think they maybe have went up the backside of the fells which was strange with a light south west wind and more south up here.
hi lads, can you keep a lookout for birds gb12d and gb12e please as we had a right stinker from stafford on saturday with hundreds missing from the two feds, west cumbria and derwent valley thanks, keith
1, feb- march 2 years ago you could send a youngster going through the moult and bare around the neck to 200mls and get them back no problem, now we struggle to get them back in perfect condition? now, i would stop them mate for next year if they have had a few races.
