In todays’ race from Hay, 3/8/2013, 1410 WPF birds competing from 55 lofts and 519 Geelong birds were released at 9.15 am.  Conditions at the race point were clear and sunny with a light North Westerly wind.  The birds left the race point within two minutes in one group.

For the trip home the birds are expected to encounter West to North Westerly winds of between 25-35 km p/h with rain expected later in the day.  Top temperature expected in Victoria today is 12 degrees.

Remember production of clocks is one and a half hours after clocking.

Good luck to all.
