Aye yer right. Ma sporting challenge entry got hawked before first race at the loft, permanent injury to leg, now finished racing, so you can loose them anywhere.

Think this is just another of the many theories that pigeon folks hold that just cannot be proved as nobody knows for sure what happens to the convoy after it leaves the liberation site. It reminds me of the one that I was told in the 60s that rain grounds the leading birds that always choose to fly through it, but the 'also-rans' choose to fly round it - and arrive home first.

[blackdog]

the leading birds into cumbria have been hit 15 miles from home many times over the last few years, fanciers have witnessed them scatter then the second batch go through ok,ever heard the saying(they should have been here by now) :emoticon-0127-lipssealed:

I've no doubt that peregrine strikes have been witnessed, but how can anyone say for certain that it is the leading batch and of a certain Federation's pigeons? Scottish Feds at the same race point liberate at 15 minute intervals. Can the leading batch of a following liberation not overtake the back-markers of the one that went 15 minutes earlier?
