This must be the pigeon-racing world’s equivalent of the Olympics. There was a million dollars in pigeon-racing prize money on offer in South Africa yesterday. (It seems like the winner’s prize is actually fifth of that but, who’s counting?) The BBC tantalisingly introduced the story on Friday, but didn’t deliver on the winner yesterday.

Well thanks to the IPRR, today’s guest publication, I can tell you that

Filip Norman wins the prestigious One Million Dollar Race in South Africa, with the attached prize of no less than 200.000 dollars.
The pigeon in question is a grandchild of the World famous Zorro
