Description

See [link] for more info on "my" pigeon!

I tracked down his owner in IJmuiden (Holland). Turns out that this particular pigeon flew from the Pyrenees back to Holland. And instead of flying to his home in IJmuiden, he flew a bit further and landed in Leeuwarden: a total of 1690 km or 1050 miles. Quite the athlete!

His owner really wants him back and is coming to Leeuwarden to collect him. A 160 km drive (99 miles), nothing in comparison to what his pigeon did!
