A tale of 2 strays

[Blue Tooner]

Got a stray in the beginning of last week and phoned the number on the clip ring and found it was a bird racing from Thurso then tonight got in another stray covered in oil and again phoned the number on the clip ring to discover it belonged to the same fancier in the south of england as the stray I got in the week before except this time it had been lost from an Arbroath race a few weeks before, ??) what are the chances of that happening :-/

ive had 2 strays in at different months of the same year belonging to the same fancier but never 2 within 2 weeks belonging to the same fancier  well done blue tooner for making the effort and reporting them  sometimes all a bird needs is a nights rest and a feed and then its ready to leave on its own steam the next morning  kev

Going back a few years ago I had 6 youngbirds in one evening and an old hen that had been lost weeks before the YB's from the same fancier. They even gave me a box of goodies when he came to fetch them.

I had 2 birds from same guy 3 weeks apart the first he told me to keep I didnt really want it but he said it would mean a lot to him as he was new and not very good then the second showed it was a nice bird he told me to fly both of them I called him back after OB's and gave them back to him with 7 diplomas they had won he was very excited about it he is still breeding both of them

It happened to me this year with young birds.Got a call " hi mate i've got one of your y.bs." I duly collected it a blue hen with a purple marker.Two weeks later the same fancier "Hi mate that y.bs. back".I knew there was one missing so off I went to collect it.Different pigeon pencil cock ,makes you wonder why they do it.Lindsay
