Its getting colder.

Still no pigeons on "my" rape today, but I moved around the wood edges, standing every now and then and managed to shoot 8 passing birds.

Their crops were mainly full of ivy berries.

 

Hopefully the current cold snap will push them out of the woods and on to the rape.

There was a white ground frost still evident at 9am, on the "dark" side of the woods.

Still not much around me at the moment, but as you say hopefully a few good frosts will bring them out.

The bad news is that neither of the farms i shoot over

are growing rape this time,but they have quite a lot of brassicas etc so we are hoping this will see us over to the peas going in.

There does seem to be still a lot of berries around this year though.

Never fear, I've had the "word" from one of my wiser old farm yakkers. He told me that the pigeons WILL hit the rape this weekend. He also winked at me!

:P

Now, this may seem a trivial conversation, but, past experience tells me that his prediction will be correct.

:(
