3rd Training Spin

Third training toss today from wanstead flats, both batches took 14 mins to reach home today, all home which is good, but it looked as if they went over and came back on themselves from the direction they came from if that makes sense. A few of the celibate cocks are really getting to grips with things with a few coming and trapping onto landing board from the air. Which is a good and something i like to see in my pigeons when they trap well, being sprint minded all the time on the air and house roofs is valuable seconds. On a sadder note, white lightnings hen went missing on her loft fly, this is a bird who returned from the LNRC stonehaven race like a rake, im submissing hit by a wire or a hawk attack. I've put another hen in with him hopefully he takes to her well, i'll soon find out, if his in his bowl tommorow calling there will be a big thumbs up within a new blog. The birds will go around about 10 miles tommorow if weather is fine. Will let you know how things pans out. But one thing i know is for definate the young birds are occupying alot of my time i have been in and out of the lofts you could litterally say all day and at 8.46pm, finally been able to rest and type my thoughts!
