    1st time

    i have a local heron that often stands on the river bank opposite my garden waiting to pounce on anything within reach,twice this week i watched him launch himself 3 mtr out into the river head first to catch a passing surface fish which he caught, with the rest of his body floundering on the surface and with great effort getting airborn again and back to the bank with wings outstretched to dry. And start watching again.

    Help needed

    i spent over an hour yesterday writing a post for talk from the field when finished i pressed submit which changed colour and i assumed it went thru when i looked this morning my post was the 1st thing that appeared and i wasnt sure whether it had gone thru or not,something came up saying clear previous content so i did and seem to have lost the post completely. I'm obviously not a techno wizard but can i retrieve the post somehow or could it have gone elsewhere.

    Heads up

    just a heads up to anybody traveling the A1 in the lincoln area some road works with a very active camera 50 limit. I got a notice of prosecution for 57 hands up no excuses not a worker in sight or other vehicles only took 3 days to come in post 1st one in 56 years wonder if they will show leniency for good record. Suppose they must need the money to pay for furlough.
  9. Glad to see you are still at it pc will definitely miss your reports.furlough seemed to bring more guns out than usual cost me a lot of shooting one very productive farm i visited 3 times after 15 mile drive to find 3 guns already set up and the rape there i had to myself all winter. Game dealer shutting for 2 months didnt help either.since i retired i got more land and you cant get round it all and it seems use it or loose it.
  10. i personaly haven't seen this before out in the open it is a currently active wasp nest. I also watched for the 1st time a leaf cutting bee taking pieces of leaf into one of my flower pots unfortunately i couldn't get a pic of it it was coming with leaf about every 15mins for 2 days i havent seen it since.

    Actually the trelis works well specialy the larger version up against a hedge just expand it and sit behind use 2 poles but the wood breaks easily. Version in picture i use for head cover for birds coming from behind
  14. Good luck young man one thing to always remember use it or lose it farmers like to see you there.they also like a chat from time to time they have a solitary job.
  15. One of the worst shots in the book for me. low and i cant pick them out against the ground and lift my head to look for them. They usually overshoot the deeks and are on top of me to quick too close then i try to scare them so they flair. Anything other than perfect gun fit and you shoot down 1 side.
