Here are the pictures, finally


Okay, I finally managed to get some pictures of the youngsters in question and get them transferred to my computer. There are more of the one than the other, simply because the little fella is very hard to catch still long enough to get a good shot. They are very unusual, like I said.

That one little guy is what's called a Blue Bar Saddle, although it's considered "mismarked" because of the white at the top of the wings. Don't worry though, it's just "mismarked" as far as showing goes. ALL of my saddles look like that cause I race em'.........I don't show em' so I don't care. The other on is a grizzle or a stork marked maybe. I had never heard the term stork until a few days ago. I thought storks were those big long legged birds that deliver babies!!
Anyway............those are two pretty little birds.

I like them because they are a little unusual. Sometimes, I wish I had time to get into racing them, but I simply don't have the time. I have thought about joining the local AU club next year and buying the bands. They said they were going to have a one loft race and that would allow me to see how my birds would compete against the others. Not sure if I am going to do that or not.

As for the term "stork", give me a little bit and I am going to have a post up about my two white birds I have just acquired. It was a little surprising where they came from.
