Hey Everyone,
it looks like Saturday will be the day for the final race. We will serve lunch at about 12:30 and wait for the birds to come in after that. Please if possible lmk if your going to attend the final race so we have enough food and drinks. Thanks and good luck to all!!
Congrats to all those that had a bird on the drop from the 300 mile Race. We will be looking to have the final race towards the end of the week or 1st part of next week, just weather dependent. If you are planning on coming to the final race we will have lunch around noon and wait for the birds to come after that. I broke my phone on Wednesday and won't have a new one until tomorrow (Monday) so if you need something or are planning on coming to the race email me or wait until Monday afternoon to text or call me. Email Dcarter418@msn.com
We had a pair of falcons attack the birds when they got to the loft today and I watched them scatter the birds and get at least one bird and chase a few others so we may be missing a few today
Thanks and Best of Luck to all!!
