Mixed returns in Durham Combine (aycliffe section)

 

sent 12 still waiting for 6,

 

got 1 back from 2 weeks ago and 1 back from last week

 

other members down 6 and 4s and 1 `s and 2 `s

 

Has a Patch of mist has sent them past us? as most birds were coming in from the west and back over from over flying?

now only waiting for 3, had 2 return form newark (2 weeks ago) and 1 from training toss on thursday( think hes been in somewhere else? neighbouring loft?)

 

anyhow, they are all going to the nationals from wanstead flats, 222 miles

 

see what we get back, and they will go for the last race at wanstead the week after.

 

Need to get some new blood stock in, as these home breeds are good for getting home but too slow?

The 200 historically has always been a difficult race, last year I sent 39 and only got 9 back on the day, so I decided to be cautious and just send 5 to each race.  This year I'm happy to say broke the rules, all club members had good returns on the whole.
