Loads of Ayrshire strays doon here today. I have a big cheq hen in wae red spray, i take it the owner has put on for a deterrent, its pretty low for being out just one night so might have been last week. Will chuck it up the morra if fit at abbington.

 

Mick is bringing a few up and will see if anybody else has them at the club tonight

Cold North West wind and a dead sky where you could not find the sun from 11.00 Hrs here in Falkirk all heading down into the race point may have also contributed to the returns. I am sure like many will agree that Yearlings dont relish those kind of days and Percie cannot take them in their hundreds. Having watched them hunt they will stop a batch and take them up a height circling underneath then when one breaks Percie dives on it with the batch then continuing on its way. I have witnessed this on a few occasions. To my mind you had a cold head wind all the way into Ayrshire where unfit birds just wont make it. It is a true saying that we should look into a mirror first and foremost.

Its not the birds of prey that's causing the losses in the Ayrshire fed its the transporter, it flings the birds from side to side and every time it goes round a corner it looks like it will tip, the birds are getting dazed and if they have any food in them they r being sick. No one seems to be bothered about this but there happy to comment on changing the day of racing to suit the welfare of the birds where does the welfare of the birds come into it when this is happening each time they are on the transporter

i can assure you my doos and others at my club are very fit and healthy and a dont know where your getting the wind from as the lead doos are nearly doing 1700 vel so it was a blaw hame i personally have two back hawked and the word around the fed is pretty much the same you can be sure theyll be birds reported all over the country scattered to the four winds they dont always regroup and head home i can assure you of that and if theyve went to ground they mite have a single up from 150 plus percy percy percy take your heid oot the sawn even if there were unfit birds they should make there way in later on the day after the winners imo
