Pigeon sport
There are at least four main types of competitive pigeon sport:
- Pigeon racing
- Tumbling
- Highflying
- Tippler (Endurance)
Though not quite a sport, fancy breeds of pigeons are also bred to standards and judged in a competitive fashion. Levi in his book The Pigeon describes all aspects of pigeon keeping. For exhibition purposes sport pigeons are sometimes grouped as Flying/Sporting Pigeons.
