blue lad

Hi does anyone on the site possess this book .I have every other of his writings. However I found out about this one on the Internet tonight. Just wondering.? Drop me a pm if you wish to sell or trade.

That's something to look forward to .

Hey its winter solstice today is it true as a old timer told me many years ago that in the northern hemisphere we gain 3 minutes more daylight there after it ?

They established themselves in my home town of fraserburgh. However they moved to a premises 20 miles from here . They brew a good beer some super strength ones too .

Naw I well aware of the peregrine problems down Your way Tommy.And if it was the same Up north mine would definitely be stopped in the loft ower the winter . However were only blessed we the humble sparra hawk . What about a the lads training for the Christmas races down your neck of the woods they must be flying their teams daily as well ?

Very ture Walter as regards winter feeding I've fed my birds Irish mix and high protein low fat. Had two pigeon fanciers Round to house today working. And after they Finnished. They came over to have a look at the birds . Both commented on how All birds handled perfect condition despite a flight or two to come in some. Says it all . Get them out .

Hope you all get a good race lads And good returns . Great stuff getting it aff the ground and in the air. Could well be a thing of the future we the burdz well feathered at this time o the year Just wish I stayed down your end would definitely have a go at it . Winter flying I am glad iam not only one ! Requires a lot o loft flying plus training Good birdage but could have been more i think with the amount of fanciers down your end . Good luck all competing .

Wife's wooly tights on to keep the cauld oot

Pure white up here last two days hens out ten to half 11 . Boys out back o half 11 and back in before one o clock. After 15 mins in the bath we hot water and a grain of vikron. Half a dozen snipes down with them . Will take a photo next time . War time exploits of racing pigeons were legendary and they flew to home lofts underfire from shell fire bullets.blizzards fog storm force winds and over many miles of sea. expletive remove they got wings and wings are for flying . That's all I've to say on the matter. Each to there own as regards what they do with their doos.

Ats the best yin I've heard a weekend pms Hey each tae their aine .

So will I . As will everyone else. But keeping then in all winter . Will in no way starve avian predation they will still take the weak unwary ill UN healthy . If I've to stand out side for a couple hours a day over the winter watching for them coming down so be it .it's good to be out in the air .

Your late breds will be better for it.I bet they are well wise by now . Get em out they got wings !

Snipes flying over the roofs on there way out tae the country for grains . Morning noon and early evening daily in all weather's . Only the UN healthy or in firm fall to the hawk. Same we domestic birds if out regular they soon get wise to the signs of the wild birds when hawks about.

They are well wise to the sparrahawk. I've seen it more this winter than any other . And nae lost een tae it as yet . Long may it continue

Two pair of socks and two pair of y fronts!empty drinkers after feeding.

Limited daylight . But both sections still getting out most days. It definitely sharpens them up . They have wings and what are wings for ?

Thats the best one I've seen in a long time😊.If trusted enough some birds learn humans posse no threat to them . Same could be said of of the humble pigeons you will always get some very tame ones and others that will jump every time you enter loft ? It's a rare thing nature.

The tumble dryer fluff is the stuff they take. Must be the cold snap😨

I've seen two quite regularly around the feeders. Also very tame. I've been watching sparrows over the last few months taking fluff and feathers into the three nest box's we've got on the drain pipes. Couple of days ago I counted 9 leaving in the morning from one. And 4 wrens going into and leaving the smaller box out front . Is this common? As I've never noticed it before ?

Problem solved gentlemen I've got it off the bleefe site £15 buckaroos. Used in very good condition. Thanks for looking out for it .

Looking for this book. If anyone has it and has no further need of it. I'd very much like a read of it . Drop me a p.m. and I will gladly pay you for it providing its not to dear of course .

Well said Phil is forty nae enough to race ?

I've not raced this season. Due to working commitments and health issues. Birds have had a complete break from racing . I've had them out every day and enjoy watching them fly round the houses. Have had to throw out the usual snipes every now and then .Just having them to look after keeps me busy and happy . Keep a few pairs . They won't cost much to feed. But be aware they will soon multiply!

Could someone please pm me Colins phone number?

What about the Belgiums ? I've read of them sometimes leaving birds with eff all for 5 days. And coming back and none had died. Food for thought? Or no food? Best get someone to have a look in .
