who has all sent to the Algarve this year? GOLDEN RACE ALGARVE ALGARVE GREAT DERBY

OF COURSE....

darkness young birds will lead the way in droves in any competitive club/federation... most weeks, and definitely at national and open racing...

good luck guys, great selection there from all the top lofts in Fife

we couldn't get through to the lib-line? D.Baldie, St.Andrews 13.59, 13.59, 14.09, 14.11, 14.51, 14.51, 14.52 was our earliest arrivals

have a great day and an awesome race today best of luck...

yip happens all the time in the Tenerife one loft races, never seen a convoy to date 'scattered to te four winds', maybe something to do with the sunshine though eh :smiling-sun: I don't race in this fed, so couldn't give a fook!

raptor attack wouldn't account for these horrendous losses from such a short race, must have been around 1000 pigeons libbed, a peregrine wouldn't scatter a convoy this size...

I think the sighting of your transporter definetly has to be answered

well done Eddie

good to see a common sense approach, thousands of young birds lost this weekend

at midday temperatures will rise and at early afternoon be at there highest, early morning lib in cool weather conditions will give pigeons the best start and the chance to cross into the UK, hold them to Sunday now... another half a day in baskets won't matter now... midday lib becomes a lottery!

never in favour of a midday lib, forcing pigeons to spend the night out imo just isn't right... some will meet there fate due to this and never reach home, but if it's the only chance of a race so be it...

398 it's a North of Scotland thread [

how did this race go for you guys?

still hundreds missing, more than a band of rain imo... that's three poor races this year!

sounds good, social media probably the way to go... in this day and age LibLine was a bit dated anyway...

nice hatrick mate, well done

wouldn't go that far

still takes a great pigeon to complete five hundred miles plus on the shift, regardless where it from... only the best make the result!

3 minutes clear... awesome start

the small sections flying a handful of pigeons in SNFC should be combined with there closest section our sport is shrinking each season and therefore adjustments must be made accordingly to give good fanciers flying exceptional pigeons better recognition

awesome flying from 19 pigeons sent in what was a testing race for the youngsters

Biggest problem these days causing young bird losses is major health issues and the raptor problem... Fanciers this year are losing young birds in great numbers every day of the week when they go training, nothing to do with wind turbines or atmospheric's or ABCD Factor or what ever crap its called...
