How do we use tracker birds in training and pigeon racing?

This podcast is for you if you are interested in what we have learned from using tracker birds!In this episode, Geoff Armand discusses what we have learned from the use of tracker birds and how it can be applied to pigeon racing.Tracker birds are used to track the movement of pigeons during a race. This information can be used to learn about how pigeons navigate and what factors influence their flight.One thing we have learned from tracker birds is that pigeons use landmarks to navigate. They will often fly over the same landmarks on their way home, even if it is not the most direct route. This suggests that pigeons are able to learn the landscape and use it to find their way home. We can use this information to improve our pigeon racing.Listen to the rest of the podcast to find out what more we have learned by using tracking. Please visit our website at www.victoriafallswcpr.com to learn more about how you can enter the Victoria Falls World Challenge Pigeon Race, and remember to follow our social channels to stay up to date on this exciting, world class event.
