Evening flyers,
A busy day - with me trying to make Facebook Live actually cooperate with me...(2 failed attempts - was sad)...and lots of computer work for the One Loft.
Got the Unikon band entries done for the birds...now it's syncing them to their electronic bands that happens next...stay tuned on that one.
Was an overcast day today - with some rain and rumbling of thunder on and off. The birds still got to enjoy the fresh air in their aviaries.
I learned a new pigeon word today - waddles. Interestingly enough - it has nothing to do with how they walk. The pigeons' waddles (the "white" part on their beaks) are looking bright and white, healthy indeed.
Posted a video on Facebook - so feel free to check it out.
Hope you had a great weekend, and great week ahead!Jeane (aka "The 1st Pigeon Lady")
Good evening flyers,
And it looks like we are done with our drop offs for another year! I'm almost done my website updates with the bird entries, but of course, still need time for finalizing the numbers and checking them twice - just like Santa Clause :)
Had quite a few lofts decide not to enter this year after reserving their perches, but low and behold we have some great lofts represented this year - and we're looking forward to starting the training!
I promise to start the "Facebook Lives" this week, and be more regular on that - as it's a great, easy way to update you all on how things are looking here in Niagara.
Rick is planning on letting the birds out for loft flies starting this week. The birds have been spending a lot of hours in their loft aviaries, enjoying the sunshine and fresh air.
The health of the birds is very good. Rick has pulled out a few birds to separate them from the others, but all in all they all seem to be doing well.
Have a great week everyone,
Jeane (aka "The 1st Pigeon Lady")
Good afternoon all
Getting close to 300 birds in the loft and they look great! Rick is happy with the health of the birds - and next week some loft flies will happen!
Just posted a Facebook Live for you - but the connection was a bit off today - apologies.
Still accepting birds this week so connect with us if you're planning to drop off any.
Stay tuned this week for a tour of our new trailer!
Good morning everyone
We’ve decided to extend the drop off date until the end of the month. We based this extension on some misconceptions of the order and many people were unsure if they could send any birds.
Please contact us if you’re planning to drop birds off - as we’re all clear here in Niagara.
Excited to see you all!
Good afternoon everyone,
Rick will be going to meet Rick Broere from the Salem Special OLR this Wednesday, May 18th in the evening at the Toronto airport.
If you have any birds that you want Rick to bring to Rick Broere or vice versa, if you have birds that you would like Rick Broere to bring to us, please connect with either Rick.
Our number is 905-329-5139
Have a great week!
Evening all
Another pick up is set for Sat. May 7th at noon at the Tim Hortons at Highway 6 South and the 401 in Puslinch.
