fred x Posted July 4, 2010 Report Posted July 4, 2010 I went to see the liberations at Beachy Head car park (Eastbourne)on Sat.3rd July. I witnessed some thing I've never seen before all the 20 odd years at this site. At 6:45am the strings were cut & pigeons liberated, When a firms van come racing a long the small road at the point of the lib. he see the pigeons & seemed to put his foot down & excellerat right through the pigeons knocking them all ways, Killing 5 outright & injuring many more, then speeding off at high speed.he's wing mirror was broke off with the inpacked.The sound of the pigeons hitting the vehicle was horrendous . I think the pigeons were from the East Coast Federation!. We as a club will be writing to the firm to see if they can find the driver. If any one has the phone number of the said Federaion Secretary,I will can give him some details. Fred (President) Eastbourne & Dist. H.S

Albeit im glad werent our birds hit , the birds shouldnt be liberated anywhere near a road !!!!! perhaps a change of site is in order fanciers have enough to contend with bops and clashing without birds killed before race has been opened fer less than a minute
