30 mile training this morning

Trained the birds 30 miles this am. Where I released the birds, there is a loft and the guy was flying his birds this morning. All 50 of my birds mixed with his. Only 35 of my 50 birds came home. I am sure they will trickle home throughout the day. I think I will end up loosing a few.
I think training them there might be good. The birds will learn that they can circle with the other pigeons or come home. My thought is they might learn to not circle and break away from a circling flock. On the other hand it may teach them that when they come out of the basket they are supposed to circle for a while before they head home. I think I might avoid training there again.
