NL-2026-8517406 — a blue-bar pigeon bred by H.T.G. Bouwman, combining a high-performing day-distance sire with the documented Will & Falco Ebben family of NELIS and NORA. Its pedigree brings together sustained racing performance, a close connection to a major Roye winner and several generations of successful racers and breeders.

The sire, 20-1302502, provides the principal performance foundation. He was ranked 3rd best day-distance pigeon in the Fondspiegel over 2022–2023 and 3rd day-distance pigeon champion of Section 8/GOU in 2022. His race record includes 20th NPO Chateaudun against 5,171 pigeons on 11 June 2022, alongside 3rd Gien against 1,689 pigeons and 8th Issoudun against 3,864 pigeons.

The dam, NL-2023-9148236, “NELIS X NORA”, was bred by Will & Falco Ebben and is a half-sister to the winner of 1st NPO Roye against 9,558 pigeons. Her father, NELIS, NL-2018-1682484, is recorded as the sire of 24-8253025, winner of that Roye result over 310 km with a lead of 1 minute 42 seconds. This is a particularly compelling close-family highlight.

The maternal grandmother, NORA, NL-2018-5163574, contributes both racing and breeding credentials. She raced to 4th Nanteuil against 5,215 pigeons and 8th Chimay against 11,228 pigeons, and bred a winner of 1st Tienen against 3,413 pigeons.

The deeper maternal pedigree adds further substance: NELIS is bred from FIDEL × JENNY, with JENNY bred by Ad Schaerlaeckens; NORA is bred from HANNIBAL × KATJA, with KATJA bred by Peter Janssen. These are documented ancestral connections, complementing the Bouwman family on the sire’s side. An appealing pedigree for buyers seeking day-distance consistency combined with proven winning ability in the close maternal family.

Eric Bouwman is a proven AviRings Derby performer, highlighted by 3rd against 1,146 pigeons from Mátyásdomb in 2022 and 9th against 407 pigeons in the 520 km Finale Flight from Tiszabecs in 2021. His 2021 campaign also produced 3rd Total flight time, 6th Average speed, 10th AviRings “3 races” Cup, 14th Grand points and 16th AviRings Ace Pigeon with pigeon 10054852021NL. In AviRings Derby PRO 2026, NL-2026-8517412 scored 11th against 2,693 pigeons and 19th against 2,417 pigeons, while NL-2026-8517406 added 31st against 2,206 pigeons and 72nd in the 521 km Final Race 3/3. These results show repeated top-percent performances from sprint stages through demanding 500 km finals.
