The homing pigeon club of Lexington and Central Kentucky
The bird list has been updated to reflect who has returned (or hasn’t) to John’s loft after the smash toss last week. A couple more had straggled in as recently as Monday and John says that the birds that did come back looked to be in good condition.
Bob reports that the birds in his loft are back on track and they appear to be clicking and are back out to the 40-mile mark again.
The weather looks good for our race on Sunday. Stay tuned!
We had a successful race with decent times and good returns from Crossville Saturday. This is the race station which we plan to use for this fall’s Lexington Futurity. It’s really more like a 140-mile race for most of us, but it is right on the line of flight from the Oneida and Chattanooga stations.
