Alot of you ask how are they bred?? 104 and 349 are from the same pair different nest that has bred 2005 4th overall Europa Classic!!
Argenton National!!
The final results will be out in a few days. There were 9,912 old birds and 21,065 yearlings entered,for a total of 30,977 birds, 360 miles to me!!
It appears that I will be 40th National Old and about 70th with the 2 yearlings. My old bird will end up about 80th out of the entire flight of 31,000 birds!
It was a hard,hot,headwind race with alot of losses.
