Here is a recent article in Sports Illustrated titled The Birds. I don't subscribe to Sports Illustrated but was made aware of this article due to negative comments regarding it in the pigeontalk.com forum discussion groups. While it's great that pigeon racing receives a mention in a true sports magazine, it seems that the article put down our sport and had negative connotations. Review the article and post your opinion.
