"Unexpected arrival from a long lost racing pigeon!"

First thing in the morning I see a long lost racing pigeon circling. One of my fancy looking pigeons that I thought I would never see again was returning after being gone over a month!

Beautiful female pigeons ❤
I would say someone had her. I just caught a lost bird from the Hoosier Classic this year. It was skinny too. So just one day of hard flying will do it. She actually looks great having been gone that long.

@@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons Yea, for being a month outside she would have been in very rough shape. Someone, maybe a flyer had her and then released her to try and find home and she did. Awesome that she came back, anyway!
I’m a sucker for that color it’s so beautiful
I had racing pigeons for a great part of my youth, and then picked it up again in my mid 20's 30's and early 40's. Fantastic sport, but life just got to busy, and condo living is not conducive to flying pigeons unfortunately. I flew in the CJC in New Jersey, and when I flew as a kid maybe 600 lofts for YB season. As I flew thru my middle age, maybe 250 lofts, tops. I would notice, and a lot of the "old-timer's" would concur on this, that it seemed when you would get a real nice clear day in late November/early December, with strong winds from the west or even northwest or southwest, you would get birds back from the YB series of races in August and September. I remember one day one year in early December some years back, I got three birds back on the same day. One was lost during training and the others were lost during the race schedule in September. The two birds lost during the races, still had there counter-marks on. The theory was that the birds almost instinctively knew winter was coming and they needed to stop "bumming around". lol Interestingly, the weather got much worse almost immediately after the birds returned home. I was always in awe at how smart our racing pigeons were...
That is a beautiful bird. I’m glad you was able to get her back. Good luck with the final two races.

Years ago back in the '90s I lost a White Hen on a 200 mile race, she came back 3 weeks later completely covered in some kind of clear type of cooking oil, I was thinking maybe she went down in back of a restaurant and got into a container of used cooking oil maybe thinking it was water, I don't know but it was a mystery to me, I bathed her in warm water and dishwashing liquid several times to try and clean it off of her.

I think they use a combination of skills to find home. but to get them started in the right direction I think they use the earths magnetic field. then the suns poition combined with the Time of day. then when they are within 20 miles of home they can pretty much go by memory of the landscape. but nobody really knows for sure I have a theory about their eyes but it’s not worth mentioning because I can’t prove anything.

I have lost 3 pigeons about a year now and I saw one of them come back probably like 4 months ago but she landed for like a 2 minutes then flew away again and didn't come back. So idk if someone trapped them and they getting feed from another loft or they just don't want to come back.

Sad to happen this . If is bad weather they stop . If they can see some food offered in that area they go down . So easy they can be attracted there so they don't leave .
