Where have all the birds gone

[then and now]

Sunspot activity is at a peak this year

The k factor (sunspot) has been strong which also seems to affect the pigeons when racing home

My cat bought one in a few months ago!!! it was tagged I didn't know what to do with it!!!

What did you do with it?

 

[Lady Gull]

What did you do with it?

It was dead already - think my partner disposed of it - he contacted the RSPCA I think and gave them the number on the tag and they traced the owner and let them know that it had met its maker!!! I was scared in case it was a prize winning bird!! We never heard anything though!!

I found a racer stunned by the dyke road. I took it home and tried to help it but it died.

Birds are usually buggered when hit by anything.
Anyway i looked up the website and called the number but nobody contacted me back .
They make out it's a big deal and how important to report, then dont give a shit themselves!

Yes it is homing pigeons , big piece in the paper yesterday, re these are top quality racing pigeons that are not getting back home.
My mate been boring both cheeks all day, wondered if anyone knew anything about it.

But not top quality homing pigeons? Can we assume that wherever they are, they got their really fast.

Could this be the catastrophic Olympic event that Brunswick warned us about?

The Poles may be shifting, the World could be slowing down and not spinning as it should. The Moons orbit could be shifting leading to wobbling. If you watch enough films there could be loads of reasons, pigeons dropping out of the sky feature in most of them!

They have been taken by Apple. The "homing" part of the brain is required for new facilities on the iPhone 5.
