Lanarkshire Federation – Kettering Old Bird 19/06/2021
Kettering was this week’s race point with the weather very unpredictable for the race controller the 1550 Federation birds and 7 other crates birds were away at 08 15hrs in a light and variable wind. They got it spot on and the Federation enjoyed a very good race with the birds recording well into the 1300s for the 276 mile journey.
This week’s winners are the brilliant loft of GWP Macaloney of Airdrie club. They had three birds hit the trap for a decimal loft finish - 1st, 2nd and 3rd Open Federation prize.
There is not a pigeon loft I ever reported on that has recorded the results of this partnership. Their level of consistency is breath taking!
Their winner Tiger 17 which is bred down out of the partnerships new "Dream team lines" Tiger 17 already has two Federation wins a second and third federation. Some pigeon lads. Full report with photos here
Club news - John Hood sent me some information on his clubs winner Joe Gormanly of Chryston had a nice 1st and 2nd club with his late breds.
