Dagenham Essex, Blue skies, mist knocking about

When a hen comes of her nest and deposits a big stinky dropping who's to say it doesn't smell like nectar to pigeons???

Everything crossed here also for you both. ;D

I had a pigeon reported from within an army barracks once. Arranged with Amtrak to pick up the pigeon from there. The pigeon was left at the front gates awaiting pick up. Amtrak failed to pick up the pigeon, their excuse...........................they knocked but nobody answered.

Welcome Beanz, no editing here ;D ;D

West Essex last race this coming weekend

Think there's many reasons, one not mentioned yet is racing y/birds on systems. Inexperienced y/birds are sent on eggs, w/hood or being split all week and allowed to run together on Fridays. They just get over excited and cant handle it early doors.

I wouldn't go to every Tom, Dick and Harry for pigeons. I would study the results in the fancy press, not the adverts. Buy from one source to cut down the chances of inheriting health problems into your loft.

I've found my better oldbirds are 2nd/3rd round youngsters trained well, lightly raced.

8/10 fom Witton Castle

7/10 From Witton Castle...time for a couple more (fingers crosed)

About 5-8 miles from there. Clouds breaking blue skies still mist in the air though.

Welcome Popeye 'toot toot'

L.N.R.Combine Witton Castle, holdover

Sun pushing through now, Dagenham

Full low cloud cover, yuk!

How do you rate the member?............by the inch???? :o ;D ;D ;D

L.N.R.Combine at Witton Castle

Dont know about squirels Samantha but could be magpies/crows if they can find a way into your lofts. Funny was only talking about this last night............the culprit was a crow.

With all things being equal I would take the ones that appeal to me, ones that feel right in the hand, I suppose gut feeling would best discribe it.
