1st pigeon of Marseille, preliminary 25th national, very happy with this hard race and most pigeons on the east side. Now 3 pigeons in the top 46 national. Proud of my team.🥰😎🥳

The first pigeon has Silke, Jef and again "Porsche 911" inside, it seems this "Porsche 911" line is doing great crossed with marathon pigeons on marathon races. That's one of the reasons we introduced "Marathon Porsche" 🥳🥰😎
