Now that we learnt different and popular varieties of pigeons across the globe let us unwind some interesting, and unknown facts about them. Pigeons can fly between 600 and 700 miles in a single day, with the longest recorded flight in the 19th century taking 55 days between Africa and England and covering 7000 miles

Paris 1900This was a considerable sum in 1896 and it therefore comes as no surprise to learn that members of these clubs were wealthy, with the sport attracting individuals from the House of Commons and the House of Lords and even royalty.

Dovecote Interior Pigeons would enter the dovecote in a variety of different ways, depending on the size, shape and type of structure, with the most common entry/exit point (known as the flight entrance) being provided beneath a cupola or ‘lantern’ on the roof of the structure. The birds would be encouraged to roost and breed within the structure, and as pigeons are quite prolific breeders, bringing up to 8 young into the world each year, competition for breeding cubicles within the cote would be high.

Even though man no longer has a need for the pigeon in the 21st century, there is clearly still a place for this much-loved and much-maligned bird. Slowly we are realising that we cannot wipe out wild bird populations just because they are inconvenient or unwelcome - particularly when the source of the problem is human. With the advent of the Internet and the wider availability of information, we are learning how and why problems such as those associated with the feral pigeon exist and how we can better deal with them. We also know that pigeon populations can be controlled in a humane and effective manner and that to continue to use commercially motivated controls such as culling is not only morally wrong (and often illegal) but also counterproductive. The future may not be full of hope for the pigeon, but the bird has survived in close association with man for over 10,000 years and it is likely that it will continue to do so well into the future. Prior to this triumph this great athlete had won: 1994- 2nd club, 7th South Down Fed. Penzance Yearling National 286 miles; 1995- 1st club, 3rd South Down Fed. 13th Open EDC Dinard (France) 422miles; 1996- 2nd club, 2nd South Down Fed. 23rd Open INFC Old Bird National Rennes (France) 460miles, velocity 924ypm, 1067 members sent 2954 birds; 1997- 1st club, 1st South Down Fed. 19th Open INFC Old Bird National St. Nazaire (France) 505 miles, velocity 733ypm, 728 members sent 1901 birds. Breeding season: GPSOL is given with drinking water in a dose of 15 ml per 1 litre of water at least 2 days a week. Pigeons have been found to pass the ‘mirror test’, the ability to recognise its own reflection in a mirror. The pigeon is one of only 6 species, and the only non-mammal, to have this ability They are intelligent. And they can recognise similar faced people in pictures and daily life, and all the more, can even recognize themselves. Interesting isn’t it!Derivation: The word ‘pigeon’ is derived from the Latin word ‘pipio’, meaning ‘young cheeping bird’. The word ‘dove’ is of Norse origin and first appeared in the 14th century as ‘dova’ or ‘douve’. When one writes about pigeons that have flown the route over and from Europe's mainland across the English Channel, over the island of Britain and then across the Irish Sea one seeks to pay tribute to those who have successfully faced what the Canadian, Gordon Chalmers, once described as ' The toughest of tough routes'. Therefore I offer this piece entitled 'Irish Pigeon Gold'. Unfortunately not every athletic stalwart can be considered due to the space available. It is believed that pigeons have been bred in China since 772 BC, and according to author Salvador Bofarull, Indian and Arab merchants used carrier pigeons when visiting China. Several hundred years later, references have been found that confirm pigeons were used to carry messages attached to their legs. At the first Olympic Games held in 776 BC, every athlete taking part brought a homing pigeon from his village. If he won his event, his would be the bird that carried the news home. In young pigeons, systematic use of GPSOL helps in the optimal development of the young organism, bones, feather which is a guarantee for the future and the performance of young pigeons
