Oh so true !!! in what you say Steve    But     you will still have those ??? that wish to be kind etc     to their birds, like 1/2/3/5/10 mile type of thing. In my view a total waste of time/effort. But then !!! I know nuffink     .

Seems ok to me Rick    We all should be looking
"I think"     for those lean mean racing machines etc to put in the clock & not those pretty ones that can trap us at times, on the perch    .
