Re: Hawks / peregrine lost birds

Hello NeilA/Andy, yes I think that's about as good as it's going to get, will pick my races this season & have a rethink personally as to if I stay with it or pack in. I fly in a great club only a few members which is a pity but will see what will change if anything for 2025 with racing, but I t...

Re: Hawks / peregrine lost birds

So it should really cater for all with a race program of interest to its members Yes & this doesn't, it's not been fit for purpose for a long time, too set in it's way of thinking I've got nothing against any members that want to fly the Channel but it's always going to have a detrimental effec...

Re: Hawks / peregrine lost birds

I've had birds since the early 1980 of 1 description or another & pigeons since 2006, so to be onest I don't know any different with losses etc as this has been a regular part of this hobby for me . To Andy I think the race program isn't forward thinking enough & doesn't do anything for the ...

Re: Hawks / peregrine lost birds

Andy I think the Combine race program isn't good 4 times @ Chale with the peregrines on the island what chance have we got. With the lack of distance going E to W it's not a good program in my mind but with a falling membership year on year because of a range of issue's etc age,health, BOP it's not ...

Re: Hawks / peregrine lost birds

I agree with your point NeilA that all liberation site needs to be checked for everything before agreeing it's use. It will only turn out to be a mobile feeding station for the peregrines, so in my area I have Weymouth, Yeovil, Wincanton, Bath, Mangotfield Frome all these have local population of pe...
