Lessen the stress. Let them out then go and get a cup of tea. Watching them cannot keep them from doing their thing. Unfortunately!

Just looked out of the window and there is wood pigeon no more than a few weeks old having a bath, so they must know something we do not because they must have hatched during the worst weather.

There is always something in nature that is hard to understand.

not sure why, but this year my ybs seem more advanced than the last time I raced.....it was approx. 5 years since I raced ybs, but these are up and circling off the loft after just 3 times out, wondering if its because ive recently fitted secondary wire doors so they can see out of the loft from 8 00 am until dark ...... Suspect Suspect

Different family of pigeons David, and probably different corn mix?
