ORIENTAL ROLLER PIGEONS FROM AROUND THE WORLD

While there are some minor differences in standards around the world, there's no doubt that what we see is the Oriental Roller.  Here are just some shots from various shows and individual lofts in Europe & Australia.  None of these folks or birds have anything to do, per se, with the U.O.R.A.  Just thought you might enjoy seeing what else is in that "big, wide world of ours." Enjoy.

The first three pictures shown were photographed by Mick Bassett.
The Australian birds were bred and photographed by Frank Ciantar.

German White.  Note Pearl Eye. This bird is either homozygous ash-red grizzle or Tiger-grizzle.

The photo says it all (Kurdistan is where Tuffies seem to have originated)
