Flight[edit]
Ringbeaters are known for its distinctive “ringing” flight, where the pigeons fly in a circular motion, making a ringing sound as their wings flap against each other.[1]

Although the Belgina Ringbeater's origins are unclear, it is believed that it was developed through selective breeding in the 19th century as a cross between several different breeds of domestic pigeons, including the Ghent Cropper.[1]
