AGRICULTURAL NEWS - There is not a cloud in sight on a crisp Free State winter’s day as brothers Daniel and Justin King scan the open sky above them.
They dismiss each speck that flutters by until they spot the flash of white in the distance. The racing bird circles closer, distinctly different from the wild pigeons that flew past earlier.
This pigeon is small and streamlined, built to race. It has flown nearly 450km since being released that morning and is the first of 16 birds expected to clock back in at Kingslea Lofts today.
