I woke up this morning and looked out of the window to see thick mist, I had permisson of my wife so thought I would head out anyway after feeding our baby. I got to my permission just as day was breaking and stalked into the garden as the owners want me to try and get on top of the bunnies, I spotted my first target about 45 yards away, the mist was heavy so I used it to my advantage and stalked in another ten yards but got spotted, I froze but the rabbit looked like it was about to scarper so I took the shot standing and bowled it over. I continued my mooch and as I got to the next gateway I could see a rabbit half way up the hill, it looked about 40 yards so I gave it half a mill and took the shot and missed! I saw where the pellet hit so I adjusted as the rabbit was still there and gave it 2 dots and the pellet found its mark. Puzzled about the miss I paced it out and it was 62 paces, I guess the hill had messed me up a bit. http://i1171.photobu...81/DSC_0063.jpg Now dinner was in the bag I thought I would go and see if the squirrels had found my new bait boxes. I slowly walked up to where the first box was and popped my head over the wall and there was on there! I ducked back down to sort myself out, then I slowly popped my head back up over the wall but he wasn't there! I looked about and saw another making its way towards me then I noticed something looking at me about 10 foot away, it was the first squirrel burying his nuts, I gave a squeak, he obligingly sat up to take an H&N to the head. My attention turned to the other squirrel that had shot up to the top of a tree when he saw his mate cop it, I had an idea where it was so I slowly walked around the tree and could just make out its head, big mistake mr squizzer! I was happy with my bag so started to make my way back to the car, on the way there is another box so I checked that one, there was a squirrel sat there with its back to me so I waited for it to turn it head and squirrel 3 took an AA diabalo to the head!! I am one happy chappy now!! http://i1171.photobu...81/DSC_0064.jpg The final bag; http://i1171.photobu...81/DSC_0065.jpg I thought that I would just add this picture of my first rabbit taken off my new sticks made by "Click" http://i1171.photobu...81/DSC_0062.jpg
