I'm not racing, this season, but I'll sell you some Pigeon Poo!

Finally Fall! I have a variety of late hatches I really should be flying and then training.  Man!  So busy!  I need to pair up my two Black Eagles.  I'm not sure they were a pair after all. 

The Evansville Racing Pigeon Club Young Bird racing season is going strong.  Follow them at http://twitter.com/evvrpc

We are taking a break from racing this week because it is time once again for the Evansville West Side Nut Club Fall Festival We are booth #47 and the only place to get Pigeon Poo (it's a treat - you'll like it!)

Come on out to the nation's 2nd largest street festival (I heard this once, not sure if it's true).  I see you at booth #47.  It's a great cause!  "Won't you please help us ship pigeons to Alabama?"  :-)  Oh, come on!  Have a chili cheese hot tamale!

New Young Birds from Alaska

Just got four new young birds - very pretty young birds from a breeder in Alaska!  They got here pretty quick - two days - and looked good and healthy.  They settled in with the rest of my young bird team very nicely.  They are two light and two dark grizzles.  I especially like the darker grizzles as they have quite a bit of red.  I would call them almond or bronze.  Steve calls them tortoise.  They are actually redder than the picture shows.  I have 22 young birds banded with more on the way.  I am hoping for about 36 on the 2011 young bird team.
