Do not give up hope , my bird went to France and never came home for 28days she was a baby bird but she did turn up , so all hope is not lost yet . It is strange that so many birds do get lost of late though .  I hope you get them back safe . Willow

sorry to hear that, it seems that some yb racing this year has some un-explained losses, lets hope you get more birds back, its a real knock back when this happens, i feel for you lads that have encountered this,, lets hope more return, and possible reasons for this happening  can come to light, for the futures sake

I live in West Wales, I feel sorry for you both, been a grim week weather wise, wet and strong west wind, I think the birds will need a good feed to make it over the water

[boxer]

it was a nice day when they lib the best day we have had for a while.but the weathers been sh** ever since  

[pjc]

1 being fed by inlaws in Swansea!

[Gail J]

I can tell you where they are pigeon82, they are in Pembroke, had a few reported in the last few days, 2 of them landed with non fanciers and are now in welsh fanciers lofts being taken care of

[pjc]

there are probably a lot around that area being fed awaiting the weather to improve before being released. Not a lot of point reporting them as owners find it to much hassle to get the birds back!

[Babybird]

Anyone looked up that magnetic index thingy ?

[Gail J]

I agree Phil, just wish they would ring the whu to ask if someone in the area would look after it, not expect the finder to do it, especially when they are non fanciers

[BANDIT]

HAVENT SEEN A FEATHER OUT OF 10,GOT 1 IN FROM THE NORTH OF IRELAND AND AM GETTING IT RIGHT BEFORE GETTING IT TOSSED NEAR HOME.

[pjc]

with the amount missing should put posters up on phone poles.

[Gail J]

there were 3 in one persons garden, looked healthy and just feeding, 2 left at 3.30 so hopefully the other 1 will fly off as well

[pjc]

but how many have perrished in the weather this last week unable to find food and shelter?

[BANDIT]

MAYBE OUR WELSH COUSINS COULD GATHER THEM UP AND SEND THEM BACK ON 1 OF THE MANY FERRYS THAT SAIL EACH DAY.ALWAYS PLENTY OF TRUCKERS GOING BACK AND FORTH

[Gail J]

it's been terrible all week but supposed to be nice tomorrow so hopefully they will find their way

I would think that could be arranged

[pjc]

prob is if they wouldn't face the water in a batch will they face it solo?
