Went to see if i could get a few rabbits tonight.Got laid out looking towards where i saw a couple run into the hedge bottom. Waited for about an hour before i got the first rabbit. Then about fifteen minutes later i saw some branches moving on one of the bushes where i was shooting. I heard the call and knew it was a magpie. It took me five minutes before i could get a good shot and then it showed itself and was dispatched and stuck near the top of the bush. I had just reloaded when another landed next to the dead magpie in the bush. The second one fell to the floor after being shot. It took me a while to find a stick long enough to prod the other magpie out of the bush and i decided to pack in and walk back to the van. I got back to the van and had a look down the side of a hedge and saw another rabbit and shot it. Put the rifle on the bonnet while i put my gear in the back. Went for the rifle and could see another rabbit 50yds down the track and got that as well. I was pleased to see around 50 pigeons on the peas that are just about an inch high when i went down the farm drive. So i might get a bit of pigeon shooting done there as well. Ended up with three rabbits and two magpies.
