Hungarian ............. Strasser galamb
Macedonian ........... Штрасер Pigeon
Persian ................. Strasser کبوتر
Strasser Pigeon originated in Austria as a utility pegion, is very popular as fancy pigeon. It has a colored head, neck, wings, and tail with colored feathers on the back. The rest of the body is white. The colors include, black lace, lark colors, blue, blue barred, black or white barred, blue checkered, red or yellow. Strasser pigeons resemble with King pigeon and Modena, but have a shorter height than both of them. These birds looks like a small hen, very cute and innocent. They have black eyes with a red colored ring covering it. The finest pigeon breed, which I like the most.

Egyptian Swift Pigeon
In Egypt we have many pigeon breeds from different kinds, fliers group, owls group, homers group and tumblers group. The most famous one is the flier group which called the Egyptian swift, these group divided into some breeds. The Egyptian pigeon is a distinct breed of pigeons native to the country of the pyramids. Egyptian pigeons are better known as "the Egyptian Swift". The breed was first recognized as a distinct version of the conventional pigeon back in the 18th century.
Its narrow body characterizes the Egyptian pigeon, which is long and sloping with a concave back. These birds have a relatively low station and stand upright upon short legs. Compared to its body the Egyptian pigeon has a relatively smaller and articulate head fitted with a small beak. On observation you will find that the legs of the pegion do not have any feathers under the hock. It is because of these characteristics that the Egyptian pigeon was assigned the name of "Swift". The body of the Egyptian Swift is covered with a dense lining of long feathers that are very brittle in nature. The characteristics mentioned here are the standards for the show bird version of the Egyptian pigeon.
