Hi all
2 stray homing pigeons are loitering in my garden all week. I fed them wild bird seed because they were starving. I believe there was a race in Clonmel last Saturday but due to bad weather conditions these guys are lost. Birds seem in good health with no visible signs of any injuries. Have tried contacting people through Irish homing union but because ring tags are are N & GB it is appearing difficult to get resolution. Can anyone please help?

This happened here a few times too.

Just let them rest and they will make their own way home when they're not tired.

Have you tried this crowd? I think they're UK based.
