I just made a small kit box for birmingham rollers on my channel if anyone is interested ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KudPJju7mBs.htmlsi=z3JndES5RTK2Zw3h
They move the wings and fold the tail in, in a special way. You can clearly see they do it on purpose. I had a pigeon at home for 5 weeks. He liked to play. When he came out again to his friends, he soon discovered that he had to work so hard to find enough food to not starve so much, so he stopped playing and started being like the other pigeons. Only after eating, they relax a bit, then off again to search the streets for food that don't exist. Just look! They keep picking and there is only sand or nothing at all. They starve and governments and communes don't care about them either. They took away the 30£ a big cemetery staff got for seeds, to save money. Liars.
Very interesting, I didn't know this before. But why do they roll? Maybe caused by a good sip of moonshine? Thanks a lot for recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck health and wisdom.
makes me cry, feel heart broken at times I am unable to fly with them and for the sheer beauty they love flying, spinning & tumbling, I love pigeons so much, I can't wait to wake up to be with my pigeons each day, beautiful gift from God!
I noticed a mainly white pigeon doing sommersaults in the air near my house recently and thought that no one would believe me so I searched to see if anyone else had seen it. Thats how I ended up here. I had no idea there are a whole bunch of pigeons that do this. How cool. I thought the one thats been hanging around might be unwell or something. Not sure why hes turned up near my house in London. The other pigeons dont do it.
Excellent demonstration of the Birmingham's roll that can be bred for traits such as... :1 speed, :2 depth, :3 frequency, :4 kitting to name just a few. Truly amazing birds, as a breeder and flyer of Birmingham rollers I must say these pigeons have given me so much more than I ever expected and continue to amaze me after more than 12 years. To those who are doing the same... All the best in your attempts at the betterment of the beautiful Birmingham roller pigeon. (/("v")\) .JASE.
I have to confess that I said to myself WTF!! They are amazing! And, yes, as mentioned, it must be a predator avoidance strategy. Nature is often smarter than we realize.
I have Birmingham Rollers for sale for anyone who wants the best... These are deep spinners.. Over 60 feet high velocity. Just call me, Tom at 816-721-3017.
Wow, great action close ups! Reminds me of good ol' days in Dena flyin the kits & doctorin the acrobats the raptors nicked. What Discovery episode this come from? Miss my rollers.
Hello, that is "Vespula germanica" not "Vespula vulgaris". Google both species name you will see germnica matches the appearance almost perfectly. They are more yellow then black, whilest the other vespula are the opposite, more black then yellow.
@curlymike I gotta add, these are the coolest pigeons I've ever seen, not like those dirty crap eating bastards we have around here. The only amusement ours have is to sit on a wire across the road and poop down on people, I'm not joking, they almost got me once!
