Evening everyone
Wanted to give you a quick update that a few more birds returned home today. We're not sure where they went, where they stopped, or what they did along their journey home...but nonetheless, they're home.
We will do another inventory this week and connect with the owner accordingly!
Hope everyone is having a great week...chat soon!

Evening all (again)
Just finished the adjusted payouts for the 2021 Main RACE. Please check out the PAYOUTS tab under wincompanion on the website.
Congrats to all the winners!
Good evening all,
The current inventory is up. Keep in mind that a few birds have already left for their permanent homes - as a few folks came by today and took their birds home.
Check out the TRAINER section in wincompanion for the inventory list - as we did handle and scan each of the birds through tonight.
Please connect with us if your bird is here - to arrange pick up.
Have a great night!
Good morning everyone,
We'll be posting a full inventory tomorrow - our regular Sunday update for all. Some more birds did return yesterday - go figure our first decent day of weather...stay tuned as we will let you know who has returned!
Have a great weekend everyone!

Good morning everyon,
Well the race is officially closed. 15 birds have earned a spot in the payouts, and a couple more birds are home from previous tosses.
This weekend we will post an inventory of which birds are here. If any other birds return home following the inventory, we will connect with the owners accordingly. We will continue to contact flyers on an ongoing basis as needed.
Now, onto the payouts. 15 spots filled. The Terry Wintle Memorial Award has been awarded to LeBreton Landing Loft for the last place finisher on race day. As for the other 15 unfilled positions, according to our race rules, "Should sufficient birds fail to return in race time to close out the prizes, the unclaimed prize money will be paid-out proportionally to the birds that clocked in race time."
I will post a final payout this weekend and again, we'll have an inventory listed as well.
Thanks everyone for checking out the updates and we'll chat soon!
Good morning
It's rainy here...a little sun trying to cone through the clouds once in a while - but overall gloomy today.
The clock is continuing to run. With the past 2 days of the south winds being fairly present and strong, we're holding out a bit longer for further results.
If for some reason no further birds return, Rick and I are discussing options for the rest of the payouts that are left.
We will confirm the final decision by the end of this week.
Thanks for keeping up to date with us - and see you soon, as I'll likely do a Facebook Live this evening!
Good evening all
Well have to say there were more strong south winds today (just like yesterday)...so the birds are working hard to get home.
15 in the clock and counting. We're not through yet. The clock will continue to run and we'll keep chatting with you as we go!
Thanks for all the notes from yesterday and today. We have some pretty amazing connections with this pigeon flying gig - happy to be a part of it!
Talk soon,
Good morning flyers!
Looks like we will continue to have some birds clocking in! We're currently at 12 birds as of 9am this morning. Also note that we have a tie for 11th...which will mean the 11th and 12th prize amounts will be combined and then split to share between those tied winners.
Congratulations again to those that have birds returned so far!
The skies are starting to show some blue in Niagara now - it was pretty overcast earlier this morning. I'm in St. Catharines, but very similar skies when I look to the east of me where Niagara Falls is. A bit of wind...but they're making their way.
Stay tuned...I will continue to check (as can you - on the RACE results page!).
Evening folks,
Well...8 are home. We do have the one extra bird that returned late from a different toss (not eligible) - so technically 9 in the coop. We will continue to clock the birds in tomorrow and I will leave the clock running in the live mode for those who wish to check throughout the day (including me while at work!!).
Congratulations to the flyers with birds that trucked home hard today! We are proud of the birds so far who've made it back.
Ill let you know how the morning looks as I head to work - and I'll keep you posted with the updates as able through the day.
We had a great turn out of people here today and what a great vibe we had. Lots of chats and laughs - and we appreciate all who joined on the Facebook Live posting - that was our longest one yet! Thank you to everyone for their support and kind words along the way!
Have a great night - and we'll continue to update as the day goes on.
