Pigeons Sep 9

Mike's farm
11 am
sunny
good breeze
light dew on grass, knee high

I planted 2 pigeons in cages again, but this time it didn't work all that well.
I think I reached the limitation of manual release by pulling the string.
There was a lot of commotion and confusion, between 'spare' bird flapping in my hand to the juvenile pigeon that wouldn't fly when I flipped the cage.
I don't think Liza learned anything.
I will consider steadying her to flush, but perhaps I better wait for the next summer with that.
As far as searching and pointing, she'll be better off on wild birds, woodcock.
The dogs are already finding wc, when we go out. Both old dogs pointed some recently.
