UPDATE

Hello to breeders,

 
  Hope everybody is doing well! We took the birds out this morning
for 75 mile training toss in Wilcox az. Today’s  release video is on
Facebook. It was about 45 degrees and clear skies.
    The birds were feeling good ,made a few circles and went up high
heading the right direction. They must have overflown and were coming
back late from the wrong direction. Some came in groups for the first few
hours. Then the birds started coming more by themselves throughout the
day.  The afternoon temperature got up to 88 degrees. We are still missing
quite a few birds. 
The high day temperatures is what makes it hard when the birds make
mistakes here in az .That is why we try to release them about 7 am and in 2
groups.
   Hopefully a lot will return tomorrow early in the morning. The  birds are
going to rest tomorrow. 
   We hope to have the activation race next weekend. Entry fees can be paid 
   by Zelle or paypal for faster delivery. Otherwise send checks immediately 
because the mail is very slow. If the birds do not make it to the 150 mile race 
your entry fee will be refunded.

UPDATE

Today 42 mile training toss went well. The birds were released in 2 groups. 
they circled few times and took off in the right direction. When they returned home

they few around for a while. When they started to trap the hawk swooped in and 

then many birds when a flew a lot longer. Today they did trap as well as usual. 

The temperatures are in the 80's in the day and 50's n the evening. We are aiming

for the activation race in 2 weeks. The birds are doing really well and are in good shape.
