Birds Liberated at 06:45
The birds were liberated from Alencon at 06:45am in a west/north-west wind - 13mph. The wind on the channel is west/south-west and visibility is very good. It was a perfect liberation into clear blue skies with birds all heading north in one batch. As usual, remember to phone the lib-line with early arrivals - good luck!
