Just found out that Stephen spinks has a article in the BHW that its rumours that their were hundreds of birds flying about fraserburgh, well i cant say anything regarding fraserburgh but one of my club mates alex geddes saw hundreds in fraserburgh and i posted on pigeon basics on this subject 2 hrs after they were libed that hundreds of birds were lost and didnt clear one mile from fraserburgh ,Inverallochy and cairnbulg and davie doo saw two batches about 11am over peterhead about 500 birds only 12 miles from fraserburgh why were they on the coast with east wind, i spoke to my cousin bob whyte and he said they went to mormon hill when libed which is the right route ta take , chris donoldson saw app 150 returning back to fraserburgh ? I ask mr spinks why was the birds flying back from north and south a mile from the lib site, the last i saw was a big batch going low over the house tops about 12- 30 ta one o clock . going south , but mr spinks you take it from me its not rumours and i must add these birds should never been liberated into overcast skys very poor visability thats why the birds are not back in there lofts , a mr girham the chairman for the nrcc phoned me , and i told him it was not going ta be very good ///

Apparently the birds were being buzzed by a micro light.

fair play to you walter....there's been alot controversey over that lib and its not the first time the nrcc's had this happen with this conveyeor at this racepoint. if you go on the nrcc website ....under 'races'.....race reports..'fraserburgh 2011'

 

brian garnham is brilliant bloke....but us ordinary members 'scratch our heads' about his conveyor

Walter if you read Mr Spinks report in the BHW,it tells you that a micro-light plane split the pigeons up,and that they went very high in the sky.As far as the weather they liberated the 65 pigeons from Ayrshire,at 11am at clocking most of them were home. W.Johnstone

This will be the same Mr. Spinks who is Race Controller for one of the Peterborough Federations while he is sitting in a lorry convoying for the NRCC and is not contactable on the landline quoted in the BHW and also the RPRA web site.
