Here's a simple reminder of the quality of the birds currently being bred from at Protege Loft. Talked with Kenny Rhodes today, and kudos go out to Rusty Williams, CA, for winning the 2009 SnowBird Race FOR THE SECOND YEAR IN A ROW with birds from Kenny's DOMINANT 720 family!!! It just doesn't get any better!

Check out the #1 Pigeon Race in Canada-the Empire Classic One Loft Race hosted by Jim & Judy McInnes in Ontario, Canada. I have had the pleasure of being their twice in the last three years, and I promise, you won't find a better run race or friendlier people anywhere in the racing sport. If you're looking for an honest race that is a bargain for what the prizes are, this is one you have to check out. Here is the LINK to their race website:
TIM TESSIER of the NorthWest Junior Flyers Club, MA, is getting ready for their 2010 Fund Raiser Auction. OB, YB - any kind of bird - all funds are used to promote the sport through their youth club and to build loaner lofts that have been hugely successful. Listen and watch as the excitement grows in the 2009 NW Flyers Auction last year. Donation sheet and Auction Information sheet will be put up here on PigeonTV as soon as I get a copy.

Thanks to John Glemser for this incredible YouTube video about pigeons and hawks. Excellent job on SOME of the pigeons evading the "evil" hawks! This is what our birds endure every time we let them out - potentially. Thanks, John!
Here's one of the best "out takes" I have ever seen. Worth the watch!"
Here's a great entertaining video about a woman in NYC who simply loves pigeons.

FEATURED VIDEO Here is a very cool look at the lofts of the excellent flyer Marcel Sangers. Marcel was a recent guest on PigeonTV-LIVE! and got out of bed in Holland at 1:30 am in order to let us talk with him on the phone. His lofts are small, helping him to keep only the very best - which is part of why he is so successful! Look carefully at his breeding loft - you will see that the front and sides are very open with glass, and the roof looks to be translucent plexiglas - to let in even more light...do you smell a secret to good breeding here?

The REAL Dutch Champions Bert Oostlander, Global Pigeon Supply Co. It is once again my pleasure, as it has been in previous years, to introduce the Dutch Champions for 2008, to the American fanciers.

As co-owner, as well as being co-owner of its Belgium sister publication "Het Duivenblad", I would like to take this opportunity to give a big Thank You to the staff of both magazines for the wonderful job they do, week in and week out. . . . keep reading

RICHARD TOPUS, A PIGEON TRAINER IN WORLD WAR II By MARGALIT FOX, NY TImes In January 1942, barely a month after Pearl Harbor, the United States War Department sounded a call to enlist. It wasn't men they wanted -- not this time. The Army was looking for pigeons. Richard Topus helped American spies and the military in the swift, silent use of birds in wartime. To the thousands of American men and boys who raced homing pigeons, a popular sport in the early 20th century and afterward, the government's message was clear: Uncle Sam Wants Your Birds. . . . keep reading
Eye Sign: Two Required for Maximum Performance Silvio Mattacchione In the sport of racing pigeons one of the greatest myths that we endure is that of eye sign. Eye sign the perfect example of pseudo-science. Eye sign in all its myriad forms. Need I say quackery, pure and simple. The proponents of this fiction (eye sign) will tell you how they have observed pigeons and seriously made a study of their eyes. . . . keep reading
Young Bird Sickness This "disease" which has become the scourge of Young Bird Derbies throughout the world is thought by many to have as its cause the infection by Adenovirus which then "opens the door" to infection by bacteria, most notably Escherichia coli. It is then thought that E. coli causes the symptoms such as initially a lack of appetite and later to vomiting and in general "shutting down the gut". . . . keep reading
The Probiotic "Health Dividend" John Vance The digestive tract of a racing pigeon, is home to a number of microorganisms, including various types of protozoa, bacteria, and fungi (includes yeast). The normal relationship between these microorganisms and the host (racing pigeon) is symbiotic, meaning "the living together of dissimilar organisms". . . . keep reading
