Was out looking at barley sowing on two farms, first had a lot in the trees and a few birds coming in also some came on to the field it looked promising , set up and had a bird in the deeks in first 10 mins . Hit with both barrels it dropped and a hour later as I was packing up a bird crossed at long range got that one as well.second farm had a field sown a week ago plenty on top as well. Looked at it early in the week but birds were on the rape on next farm, today they had found the sowing , farmer was sowing a second field over the cart road .and birds going in behind the drill .I set up along a wood edge but the birds would not decoy they came over to look but not commit I changed deeks twice put out a flapper as well made no differance.so shot them as they flighted over, with no wind they were high as well shot some very good birds but missed some as well.even putting dead birds out made no difference.a couple did come over deeks and paid the penalty. Found out from farmer someone was at them till late yesterday but only got 5 he had them well spooked, I shot till 5 30. and picked 21a small bag but alit of fun.
