Matt and I free fly our pigeons, and yesterday my mate came over to get some for his new house (a few streets away). any way, matt and I kept six, he took six, which left 2 left over no one wanted, so I said to him, take them to your house and let them go and see if they come back!
Well, 1 minute after he let them go matt and I see these 2 little black dots on the horizon getting closer and closer, flying as fast as they can! In a straight line to our house, then landed on their coop! Isn't it amazing how they do that?
I think Matt is taking to the zoo and seeing if they come back from there!

It really is amazing. It'll be interesting to see if Matt's experiment works.

How far is the zoo? I recon they will come back, They have some amazing homing device that makes them come back. The pigeon races they have, I think they set them free many kms from the home?!

well, matt took them both to the zoo this morning, and just now (7pm) one returned! but not both, so hopefully the other isn't too far behind..... Matt let them go at 7am at the zoo, in south perth, about 30kms or so from here!~ wow
