We continue to have poor weather conditions. We've had rain the last few days.

We will fly the 100 mile race on the first good day.

Most of the race fees have been sent. Don't be the one to hold everyone up. Send your race fees now. The cost per bird is $200 each. 

If you want to participate in the Optional Average Speed Race the cost is $100 per bird We do have a prize pool that's bulding. We already have about $1,000. The winners will be determind by the best average speed over 4 races.

The late birds seem to have flown past the loft on this one. They are coming back from the opposite direction (northeast). 

We plan to release the birds from Hanna Oklahoma at approximately 9:30. The distance is 75 miles.

It's midnight and it's raining. We will have to see which of the weather reports are accurate in the morning.

We think we will be able to release the birds from 75 miles for our activation toss tomorrow at 8:00.

At our 75 mile race station this morning had a chance of rain, clouds, and strong left side winds.

We will toss from 75 miles the first day possible.

Most of the race fees have been sent or are in the mail. Please send as soon as possible.

We plan to do the 75 Mile activation toss on Saturday if the weather allows. All birds must be activated after this toss. 

A lot of race fees have been pouring in. Thank you for your quick response. 

If you decide to enter a bird or birds in the Optional Average Speed prize pool, The cost is $100 per bird. 

Hopefully our 10 birds will return in the morning.

We will toss the birds one more time before we start the race series. Looking at the weather report, it will probably be this weekend.

My assesment of today's toss is that different groups of birds had a different experience based on the elevation they chose to fly home from. The first birds were very high in the sky and found some tail wind. Other birds chose a lower elevation and had right side wind that pushed them to the north. Some birds stayed lower and dealt with the ground winds. This slowed them down. The later birds aren't coming home from the direction of the toss, they are returning from the north. They passed by the loft and are having to come back from the opposite direction.

The weather report now shows tail wind gusts over 30 mph tomorrow morning. Monday morning shows sunny with a light tail wind.

We will aim for Monday morning. If the results are good, this will be our activation toss.
