The results of the Icelandic jury are in and the official results can now be announced.


Third - AndyTug: Obviously up on his twitching skills....


The Americans, of course, preferred to use Blackbirds.



Second - MPN11: Where Pigeons Dare....


"Birdseed calling Danny Boy" ...



But First is SASLess: Recognising the Jaguar Replacement....(otherwise known as the sheep in wolfs' clothing).


Performance deficiencies.....sorry mate it still out performs a Jaguar!



For myself - it is a pity that no-one recognised the camera used by pigeons to bring back a photograph of their aiming point to prove that they were over Lord Nelson! However, it was a difficult choice with both quantity and quality - well done to all who entered.


Take it away SASLess
