Guest stb Posted July 27, 2009 Report Posted July 27, 2009 thats why you dont let your birds out on sats when birds are racing ;)

Guest slugmonkey Posted July 28, 2009 Report Posted July 28, 2009 You guys should see this in Spring Hill ( fla ) at times there are 5000 - 10,000 birds in air they have a daily swap meet at the club house where everyone takes strays and picks theirs up its crazy there are so many birds in the air it darkens the sky when they go over if you like pigeons it is truly amazing
pjc Posted July 28, 2009 Report Posted July 28, 2009 I like to see other batches of birds around or out excerciseing when i'm training and hope mine go and mix with others as it will teach them to break from a bunch in the future.
