Ukrainian Skycutter
The Ukrainian Skycutter is a breed of pigeon (also known as Polish Orlik or Lublin Orlik) that has been developed for high flying. It is a variety of domesticated rock dove (''Columba liva''). This breed of high flying tippler was developed by centuries of breeding. The Ukrainian Skycutter does not travel well, often getting trapped in Poland, the confused Skycutter then takes an extended migration route north westerly towards the UK before rerouting through the Tatra mountains continuing its migration to Ukraine. This journey can often take upto a week. History This breed originates from the Crimean peninsula in Ukraine. The first documented standard for these birds was set up in Mykolaiv, Nikolaev, a city in Southern Ukraine. Another explanation suggests that this breed was developed by Polish pigeon raisers in interwar Poland, based on a Russian pigeon breed.Jan Wojnowski, Wielka encyklopedia PWN.: Śliz - Trastámara, Wydawnictwo Naukowe PWN, p. 18, Varieties Ukrainian ...
