I will be on site 30 minutes prior to the event All persons involved with the release will be in appropriate attire Only birds trained to Home (trained to fly home to their loft) will be used for any event The Birds, of course, belong to God but he has allowed me to be a steward over them, thus I refer to them as "My Birds" For the safety of My Birds, the following rules apply: My Birds will NOT be released indoors My Birds will NOT be shipped for self-release My Birds will NOT be released 2 hours before sundown My Birds will NOT be released beyond a range from which they are able to fly safely home My Birds will NOT be released in INCLEMENT WEATHER or any conditions that would reduce visibility The Birds "home" using the sun and the earth's gravity therefore the sky must be clear and the sun shining before the release can take place. The bird's welfare is our first priority and all releases are determined by the owner. If after arrival, the event is canceled for any reason, one half of any down payment will be returned A full refund of any down payment will be returned if we are notified 6 hours in advance of any cancellation.
