Welsh North Road At Swindon Today 3/7/10

July 3, 2010

well had the worst of traps today,1st bird came on line and went onto the house roof and stayed there..within a minute and half 5 were circuling to come down...they all stayed on the roof.

should have clocked 7.57..ended up clocking just under 8.03..one of the 5 that came together..a little gutted but i blame myself for feeding too late yesterday because of circumstances.

last oldbird race for myself so now to concentrate on the stress i mean youngbirds :lol:

i hope the youngbirds season holds better fortunes and luck for me..than the oldbird season has.

Hi Paul,keep taking the tablets mate and get some extra when the youngens start.It makes you wonder why pigeons do that .Usually the first one can be a bit stupid but the following birds for some reason seem to know it's safe and trap like bullets.My last old bird race I genuinely lost fifteen minutes with the first bird ,he's not the best at coming in,just about caught every race he's been to.The others when they finally landed would have knocked you over if you'd been in their way.

Hope you have a great season with the young birds.

Lindsay.

Why do let yer doos sit on the roof Mate? I had years o sittin watchin them watchin me frae the hoose roof loosin countless races and poolers.

Made decision wae the younguns one year that I would not let them sit on roof. Now they sometimes gan roon un roon when they home but still no as frustrating. it took two years for all doos tae ignore the roof but well worth it.

Hope you have a corker wae yer younguns

my birds dont sit on the roof!!(they just happened to this time)...with respect to your question in red.. ive been in the game a while .

ive only a short garden and the roof is their pitch b4 they drop..which usually takes a few secs b4 they drop to the loft.

reason for not dropping to the loft was my fault for feeding late yesterday.

it was the shortest race we have only 58mls
