RACE REPORT HOTSPOT 2

Hotspot 2 was held from Safari Lodge on Saturday 21st of June, 146 km from the loft. There was an Easterly wind and the temperature was cool. The winning bird’s velocity was 1607 m/min.

2142 pigeons were sent to the race and they returned as follows,

  • 86 birds 5 minutes behind the winner (4%)
  • 1013 birds within 15 minutes (47%)
  • 1959 birds within 1 hour (91%)
  • 2033 on the first day (95%)

2064 birds returned in race time. 3.6% were still out when the clock was stopped.

A peregrine falcon attacked the pigeons at the loft which kept birds in the air. We found 10 pigeons with injuries.

 

Congratulations to the prize winners for Hotspot 2!
