Due to a shipping mechanical fault Strait Link has reduced shipping capacity. As a result, they have had to reallocate and priorities their shipping loads.  They have offered to take our birds Friday for a race Sunday. Due to the forecasted adverse weather patterns across Bass Strait on Sunday the liberation committee have agreed to postpone the race to a future date in approx. 2 – 4 weeks’ time. Apologies for the late notice and inconvenience.
