If you think that I am going to reveal to you the mystery of the pigeon eye, then you are mistaken. No-one with a pigeon in their hand can see every quality of the pigeon by looking into it’s eye. That is a fantasy. Yet there are some people who can read more things from a pigeon eye than you would expect. This takes considerable practice and after practicing a great deal you gain experience. Allow yourself to be helped by a magnifier which magnifies 15 times. Or get measured for glasses with special magnifying glass. Piet de Weerd uses such glasses when he is examining pigeon eyes. There is no shame or eccentricity then in using such glasses and as the proverb goes: every little bit helps.
The first thing we notice about a pigeon eye, even without optical aids, is the pupil. The pupil is nothing more than an opening in the coloured iris and the deep black is nothing more than a piece of the retina. Images are broken by the lens at the front of the eye and projected smaller onto the retina. The nerve endings present there transmit the images (read: prickles) further to the brain and there the prickles are converted into images: the pigeon sees.
Pam please tell Donnie these Hansennes do indeed have a lot of class. Large wings like I've never seen like maybe on a duck or owl. They have a lovely prance, and their Roman noses takes the cake. Love it! Keep up the good breeding Donnie.
Dear Don,
Just sending a gift for my appreciation for getting such nice Sion birds from you. When I get some youngsters from them, I will send you some photos. I am still planning on purchase another hen and cock. Have a good breeding season with your birds.
Received birds this morning here in Missouri. They are safe and both beautiful.
Beautiful female pigeon. Lovely mix of colors, fether quality and great posture. I figured her picture wasn't the best pose. The male is impressive and very masculine looking and I'm happy to say they are calm and get along very well together. Thanks again they are gorgeous....
The birds arrived today got them all tucked in the loft. You saved the best for last I think there nice birds ,,only sorry I didn't buy a couple of the other hens. Thanks alot
Hello. I received the birds today they look great. Thank you very much.
The Hen is here! Awesome bird & I can feel the power just holding her. She is very calm pigeon & that is always a plus. Thanks so much!
Hi this is Nate from Wisconsin. I just wanted to let you know the Andalusian cockbird made it here in good shape today. Thanks again!
Hi Don, birds are adapting well. I like their presentaion & calmness. Looks like they will fit in with my birds. I see what you mean about the BB. We'll see how he produces. Might b a genetic thing & go away when crossed with and unrelated hen.
Regards
Jim
