  19. Mates wife messaged me yesterday said Huw putting a lot of lambs out on the field asked if i could pop up sometime. As it was a nice night last night set off for Huw's called by house for a cuppa and to find out which fields lambs where in. Told him i'd start up top of farm then head down after. Called for a bit on 1 of my best places nothing,walked back to truck coffee and called on big sloping field. Kept scanning with Monocular thought i spotted a pair of eyes over lane about 200y that truck was parked. Quick flick with red off it took up hill waited a while put dog fox call on eyes on skyline with monocular a long way off,headed up field through lambs + ewes to bump in field to get closer scanning as i went half expected to walk into it. Looked up field then to my left fox heading off down hill along hedge,gave it a call not interested. Through gateway heading for lane to next farm watching him through Archer gave it a hell of a shout Oi sure they could have heard me in village but he stopped sat boom down it went a nice dog. He was a heck of a way a good 300y in engine room . Set off down to farm talked to Huw big smile on his face set off to calling place. Put the dog bark on again scanning with mono see fox down below me just mousing in among the lambs that went out earlier. On with Archer waited till it was clear of lambs quick Oi boom down about 180y vixen in cub. Nothing else in a few fields so home.
