150-mile OB Nashville Race 4/25/10

Written by David Stephenson on April 27th, 2010

Bad weather postponed the race one day. Saturday, six members of the Frankfort club shipped 55 birds to the Nashville station. The birds were released at 7:40 a.m. Sunday under clear skies but brisk SW winds at 15-20mph. It was a fast race as the winning birds came in at just under 2,000 ypm. Ken Driskell took 1,2,4 and one of Joe Penn’s birds snuck in with a 3rd. Ken’s birds pretty much rounded out the top 15 or so. Complete list of winners will be posted soon.

Homers and GPS story on NPR

Written by David Stephenson on April 8th, 2010

NPR did a nice little story about a scientific study using GPS devices carried by homing pigeons in little backpacks. The devices recorded the pigeon’s movement five times every second. The full results of the study can be found at the Journal Nature.
