Re: New feeding thread

Could be a nugget of a thread this. I’ve been forced to change my old bird feeding as not importing what I’ve used last 2 years. This is a worry as I’ve had some decent results. But this has being an interesting search and asking people. My aim is now up to 150 miles and I never realised how much pe...

Re: Ellesmere HS

Thanks Wayne. Looks like your members send quite a few pigeons per member as the birdage is quite good. I see you come down my way at Wincanton. Seems a bit strange that you go down to Weymouth on the coast then have a race from Newton Abbot and another from Littlehampton, 135 miles apart in opposi...
