Headwinds? Hot weather? Tough circumstances? We have been praying for these circumstances for quite a while. 🙏 Finally, the day arrived when we got the challenging conditions we had been waiting for. With the headwinds pushing the birds to their limits, the hot weather testing their endurance, and the tough circumstances demanding every ounce of their skill and determination, we knew this was our moment to shine. And the result was even better than we had hoped. Have a look at the fantastic performance of our team. 😎 Note: For many of the yearlings, it was their first national race of the season—and for some, their very first national race ever."

Bizarre! Solar storm danger for pigeon racing fans, forget your GPS.

Solar storm impact on pigeons: Pigeon racing, a 2,000-year-old sport, relies on pigeons' ability to navigate using Earth's magnetic field, though solar storms can disrupt their internal navigation systems.

Alan Cowell on Using Pigeons to File News From a War Zone.

Watching the nano-second messaging of modern electioneering from Washington to Paris to London, I couldn’t help but think of pigeons.

Carrier pigeons, to be precise. I was thinking of an earlier era, in an African setting, when I worked for Reuters before embarking on a career as a foreign correspondent for The New York Times. In the run-up to the election in 1980 that brought Robert Mugabe to power, I was part of the coverage of the ceasefire in Zimbabwe’s seven-year bush war that preceded the vote.

In the process, I became the last Reuters correspondent known to have sent dispatches by carrier pigeon.

Your world is different from a pigeon’s – but a new theory explains how we can still live in the same reality

Philosophers have argued for millennia about whether reality exists inside or outside our heads – but maybe there’s a pragmatic solution.

Pigeons shot with arrows in 'cruel attack'

The pigeons are struggling to walk but they can still fly, so they are difficult to catch.

Raising pigeons on roof tops in cities is a practice that has been around for a long time

Once, live pigeons were shot at Olympia

From today's perspective, the sports program reads like a fairground program: There were Olympic champions in tug-of-war, cricket and croquet, balloon and carriage races were held. Shooting was done at - today rather hard to imagine - living pigeons. Where there were medals (long gone), the winner received a silver, the second a bronze, the third nothing. Due to the unclear time schedule, journalists and spectators remained largely away. In short: Baron de Coubertin shuddered justifiably.
