Fred Lock hopes to reunited with "holidaying" racing pigeon

Henry went missing from his coop in Leeds after Fred released him in France in May for a race.

Fred thought he'd lost him for good until he got a call all the way from the Bahamas to say Henry had been discovered alive and well, apparently enjoying a "holiday."

The pigeon was indentified by a wing ring with his Leeds telephone number on him.

Since the phone call, Fred has been kept up-to-date with his progress with emails and pictures and could be reuinited with him this September.
