Good to hear that your heart is in good order mate
Great to see that David is doing ok with the youngsters and good luck to him in the one loft and in the first race of the season, I hope the birds do well for him
Good to bear that your loft is ready and that you will soon be able to get your birds back in and settled mate
All the best
I am not sure my heart is in good order, the scan lady wouldn't tell me anything, but I suspect it's not too bad. I spent a couple of hours today measuring and cutting and screwing together some of the parts of the aviary to go on the stock shed. Then I took it apart again. I will paint all the pieces and put it together out there. I managed that okay.
The first race has been moved to tomorrow as the weather is not so good for the weekend. As well as the pigeons I put in David's loft I put some in the loft of another member who was starting up again after giving up last year.
He phoned me the other day. He had youngsters from several members, after all the tosses he still has many of mine, more than all the others. He is very excited about them.
I am looking forward to seeing how all the youngsters do tomorrow. I am going in to town to watch them come home. It's 66 miles to Bendigo.

We went into Bendigo this morning to watch the youngsters come from the first race.
Sunny, light winds, 100 kilometres to David's place. He sent about 25. I looked at some that remained, the pigeons look fantastic!
Wasn't a huge success.
They've come from the wrong direction then didn't want to drop. Finally dropped then wouldn't trap. One did trap, one of mine.
Others arrived and zoomed round instead of dropping.
Smoke was coming out of Davey's ears. His normally trap like lightning. They weren't all back before he had all the rest in the hampers, in the van and off up the road for a toss.
I have a dollar that says they won't do that next week.

How far is David from your home Murray? It would be good to have a visit to his lofts. When i come down under in March.
